HOW TO CLEAN CRICUT CUTTING MATS | quick and easy!

*I forgot to mention that you want them to air dry only! If you use a towel the fibers will get stuck on the mat and you may have to wash them again.*

Today is just a very quick tip on how I wash my cutting mats. My mats last me about a year and I wash them about twice in that year. Now I do find that they will lose that sticky backing after washing them so many times and that is when I will go out and buy new. But before I knew you could wash them I went from buying mats every few months to only once a year. So washing them will definitely save you a little money.

Thank you Amy for this week's question!

I love watching your videos. My husband always ask me to turn on one of "giggles" videos. He love to hear you laugh. I had about 5 mats that I was just about to throw away because they wasn't sticking anymore. Needless to say, I ran to the kitchen and follow your every step. I'm good to go now. Thank you so much

I've cleaned mine (never used Dawn, but will now) tape the edges off and use spray glue (can't remember the name.) I use it lightly. After it dries, I remove the tape. I use a towel or t-shirt to take some of the stickiness off.... Works like a brand new mat. Thank you for sharing this Sandy... Merry Christmas to you and your family 🙂

THANK YOU! I am finally cleaning my mats today cuz im so sick of taping my cardstock down haha

[qrbgaming]

Thank you so much for this! I thought I had ruined them! I’ve only used them a couple of times. You’re a lifesaver!

[DaniellePorter-fr]

What a great, easy tip to clean up mats! Thanks for sharing.

[debbieclayton]

Thank you for sharing this. I was wondering how to clean them was fixing to go and buy more now I don't have to. Thank you again

Thanks Sandy! Tack It Over and Over has been touted as restoring stickiness. They say to mask off the edges where there’s no grid lines, paint a THIN layer on it, and let it dry. Haven’t tried it, but will when I need to. Merry Christmas!

Thank you so much. Tried it and it works. So easy!

My son kindly bought me back some Dawn when he visited the US as we cant get it here in Australia and now you have given me another use for it. Yay !! I’ll give it a try,

[kathywilliams]

Thank you! I have some mats that are just a few months old that need a good cleaning. I have one to resticky but I’m so not up to try that big job yet.

[kimsullivan]

Thank you so much! I was afraid that it wouldn't work on my inexpensive non-Cricut mat, but tried anyway. Wow! It's like having a brand new mat!

Thank you for making this video! I have about 5 to 6 that needs to be cleaned, but I wasn't sure how to. Now I know!!! 🥰

[sherryholt]

How do you clean you epoxy cups & stir sticks etc. after use. I am ❤ your channel!

[JulieRegan-oh]

Thanks so much. I was skeptical, but I tried it and I now have a clean sticky mat again.

How fun to see your smiling face in the middle of the week!

[olwethumaseti]

Thank you, I was stuck with dirty mats, tried baby wipes but did not help much. I used sunlight dish soap which is readily available in my country and it worked wonders as you have demonstrated.

[boonsheka]

I used Dawn Powerwash and it took the colors off the mat too!!

[janetmckinney]

I was just trying to fine out how to do that .thank you .

[aurorastreasures]

Thank you for this, I really needed to fix mine so I can cut things
