FAQs
Can I put boiling pots directly on this board?
While it is heat-resistant, it is generally recommended to use it for warm pans and serving dishes rather than extreme temperatures directly from the stove.
Is this product dishwasher safe?
No, it should be hand-wiped only to ensure the longevity of the cat design and the structural integrity of the board.
What are the primary uses for this board?
It is perfect for food preparation, protecting surfaces from heat, or acting as a decorative display piece.
Can I use it as a serving platter?
Yes, its whimsical design makes it an excellent choice for serving cheese or appetizers to guests.
How do I prevent the board from warping?
Always keep it in a flat position when storing and avoid getting the edges excessively wet during cleaning.
Troubleshooting
The protector slides on smooth surfaces.
Apply small adhesive rubber feet or a non-slip silicone mat underneath to increase grip.
Food stains remain on the surface after wiping.
Use a mild degreasing soap and a soft sponge. Avoid abrasive scouring pads that can scratch the printed design.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup is straightforward: simply place the protector on a flat, dry area of your worktop. To maintain the board’s longevity, avoid using sharp serrated knives directly on the surface for extended periods, as this may mar the graphic finish. For care, it is best to wipe the board clean with a damp, soapy cloth after use. While the surface is robust, do not submerge it in water or place it in the dishwasher, as the core material may absorb moisture. Store flat to prevent warping.
