cleaning cutting board
#22
That's funny, just this week I had to clean the warm & natural off of my mat. I wiped it first with a damp rag & after it dried I used the lint roller, then the damp rag again. It worked great. The batting really got stuck in those grooves.

If I am just trying to remove the little pieces of scrap materials, then I a 6x6 piece of batting. I simply just swipe it across my cutting board and it picks up all the pieces of materials/loose threads. If it needs to be cleaned, then I use a soft rag dipped in water/vinegar solution mix and wipe over my board. You might tend to think this would make the board smell like vinegar but it doesn't!! :)

Through a chance attempt, I have found that by rubbing a fine sandpaper all over the mat (that is the white one) it is almost as good as new. As a tole painter, I understand how fine sandpaper will smooth wood so I thought, what the heck, and gave it a try. It is wonderful! Does a great job and DOES NOT remove the lines or printing. Removes all those annoying burrs too.
