Troubleshooting
Placemat has a slight odor
Wash thoroughly with soap and water, or run through a dishwasher cycle. Air dry completely. The odor typically dissipates after the first few washes.
Placemat is curling at the edges
Lay the placemat flat under some weight (like books) for a few hours. You can also try warming it gently with a hairdryer on a low setting and then flattening it.
Food stains are visible
Make a paste of baking soda and water, apply it to the stained area, let it sit for 15-30 minutes, then wash as usual. Avoid leaving highly pigmented foods on the mat for extended periods.
Placemat slides slightly
Ensure the table surface is clean and dry. The placemat's grip is enhanced on smooth, non-porous surfaces. Check for any residue on the placemat's underside.
