Answers
 
Can I clean my pressing surfaces?
   
You can spot clean your pressing surface with some mild dish soap or detergent diluted in warm water. Use a gentle toothbrush, jewelry brush or washcloth to clean the soiled areas. You can then dry your pressing surface with a hair dryer.

If there is fusible present on your pressing surface, try rubbing a fabric softener dryer sheet on it. You can also heat press over the fabric softener dryer sheet with your dry iron on a medium setting. The residue from the fusible should lift onto the fabric softener dryer sheet. Incidentally, this works great for cleaning fusible from your iron as well.

I’ve noticed that the gridlines on my pressing surface aren’t exact. What can I do to prevent this?
   

Our pressing surfaces are made of 100% preshrunk cotton. The gridlines are applied to the pressing surface during a screen-printing process. The fabric is then sewn or secured to its stabilizing surface. Throughout this production process we maintain strict quality guidelines and will not allow any pressing surfaces that are distorted or inaccurate to pass a quality inspection.

Over time, especially with use with a steam iron, the cotton has the possibility to shrink or grow. The changes should be minimal and should not significantly affect the use of the product. However, we recommend using your pressing surface as a guideline only and use your ruler or cutting mat for more precise measuring. It is helpful to avoid using excessive body pressure on your pressing surface. This will help to eliminate the stretching of the cotton fabric.
