Your custom desk mat is more than just a surface—it’s a statement piece. Whether it features bold anime art, minimalist gradients, or a cozy aesthetic scene, keeping it clean ensures your setup stays fresh and functional.
Here’s how to clean and maintain your desk mat properly, without damaging the print, stitching, or surface texture.
🧼 Quick-Clean Method (For Everyday Use)
If your mat just needs a refresh:
-
Shake Off Debris – Take it off your desk and give it a good shake outdoors.
-
Wipe with Damp Cloth – Use a soft microfiber cloth with warm water.
-
Mild Soap If Needed – Add a drop of gentle dish soap (no bleach, no alcohol-based cleaners).
-
Air Dry Only – Lay flat or hang it—never use a dryer or wring it out.
✅ Safe for: Everyday dust, food crumbs, sweat marks
🧽 Deep-Clean Method (For Stains or Spills)
For coffee, ink, food, or pet-related accidents:
-
Submerge in Lukewarm Water – In a clean bathtub or basin.
-
Use Mild Soap + Soft Brush – Gently scrub the stained area in circular motions.
-
Rinse Thoroughly – Ensure all soap is removed.
-
Lay Flat to Dry – On a towel or mesh surface. Avoid hanging from corners (can warp the mat).
⚠️ Do Not:
-
Use bleach or harsh chemicals
-
Put in washing machine or dryer
-
Iron or heat-dry
🎯 Tips to Keep Your Desk Mat Looking New
-
Avoid eating directly on the mat (especially oily or acidic foods)
-
Keep it out of direct sunlight to prevent long-term fading
-
Rotate it occasionally to distribute pressure evenly
-
Store flat or rolled—not folded if you’re switching mats
