How often do you soak your cutting mat? Or do you?

patski

when it gets dry or has lots of cuts. soak in white vinegar about 1/4cup to luke warm water

1/4 cup vinegar to how much warm water?? What does soaking it do for it??

Mariposa

I soak mine. I do it when it looks/feels like it needs it.

well, I didn't know this. but I had a mat that I had ironed on when I first started quilting. and yes it warped it. oh, like in 2005 just after I retired. anyway, I did not throw it away, because I had heard you could use it in the bottom of purses, or just turn it over. had it standing behind a shelving unit. I got it out the other day, and it was not warped anymore. wow. aging it, must have un-warped it.

If you have a warped mat lay it out on a hot side walk for a while. Works like a charm.
