Lay mats flat following removal from washer or dryer. Allow mats to
cool before rolling. Roll mats nap out for delivery.
- Stained or heavily
soiled mats can be washed at 140?F (60?C). Repeated laundering at this
temperature can cause premature color loss.
- Do not use high pH
detergents, alkali or solvents. The break should not exceed a pH of 9.5. Use
a low pH non-ionic detergent. 2-4 oz./ 100# of mats. Consult with your
chemical supplier for exact amounts.
- To
prevent pilling on other mats ActionMats should not be washed with mats made
of Nylon or other synthetic carpet yarns.
-
Insure
that cotton mats are thoroughly dried to prevent mildew from forming in the
cotton yarn.
