A bathtub will work. If too wide slide up and down the sides of tub. BUT lay flat to dry.

I have never heard that before. I think I will ty it thanks

If you fill your bath with cold water until just over the mat when you have it resting onto pots,or plastic containers to keep it flat. Put a few heavy items on top so it will not float away. Leave the mat for about 2 hours and then wipe the mat and lay it on the floor, table where ever until it is dry. Make sure the mat is flat. It works great.

Thank you all for some very interesting answers to my dilemma. I'm going to try the credit card and then will soak the mat if that doesn't work. (I'm lazy, what can I tell ya?)
I know I can always count on you wonderful ladies to give me great info and direction.

I just cleaned my mat (58 x 32") with one of those miracle cloths that is supposed to clean anything without chemicals. I can't soak this one, but after a cutting spree on a bunch of fleece, I wet the cloth with warm water and went for it. Worked great.

I also use these cloths to clean the carpet after fur-ball attacks. Cold water works and doesn't set any stains. (No, I don't sell the crazy things. :) -- just use them.

This is why I just love this board. This place is just jammed packed with information! Thanks for sharing!

I did not know that! I guess I will be "soaking" mats today.

I sure learn alot on this site......I didn't know to soak your mat and let dry......Thanks for the advice........... :) :) :thumbup:

Do you soak the mat in a tub/shower stall or just mist it?

I was told this by the Olfa rep at the IQF in Houston, Texas a year or so ago...he said to get warm water and dish soap, soak couple of hours and rinse....I asked why there wasn't instructions about this when you buy the mat and his comment was, "I guess so you will buy another one"....
