What is the best way to clean cutting mat?

Eleanor Burns (I think) suggested using one of those nylon net scrubbers to get out all those left over pieces of stuff in your cutting mat. I've never tried the water deal to soak my mat. Never heard of it before. I can soak it in the bathtub but I have no place to let it dry. Mine's about 7 or 8 years old and still in pretty good shape.

I always use the wrong side of my mat if I have to work with items that are not fabric. Then keep the good side for my fabric only.
And I never knew that either. Soon as it gets warm enough, I'll do mine when the weather is warmer. I can lay it out on the deck on my table out there where it's flat.
I have been learning so much here. So glad I found this group.
