Troubleshooting
Placemat has a slight crease from packaging.
Lay the placemat flat and gently iron on a low setting with a pressing cloth, or allow it to settle flat on the table for a day.
A spill has left a noticeable mark.
Address the spill immediately by blotting with a clean cloth. For persistent marks, try spot cleaning with a mild soap and damp cloth, then air dry.
