How do you clean this mat? Witch hazel and white vinegar?

Honestly I haven't had to really clean the mat. Usually I lay a towel on top while I am using it.

Hi Camille,We recommend cleaning your mat with a yoga mat cleaner or a 1:1 ratio of water and either white or apple cider vinegar. A 1:1 ratio of water and lemon juice would work as well.Thanks!Yoga Accessories

I use mat wipes on mine. I'm sure you can sponge it with soap and water. No washing machine!

I just use chalk you can buy at Target or Walmart. Cleans off with no problem. About once a week I clean it with a damp cloth.

you should always clean something new. ,vinegar and water rinse a couple of times.

I just use soap and water. I was it out right away and make sure it dries completely. I'm sure some kind of cleaning solution would work hopefully...

Cleaning is fairly simple. Use a slightly damp towel (preferably microfiber) and wipe gently. Lightly agitate little specs that tend to stick on the mat. Excellent mats for the kitchen area.

I've been using it for more than a year, and I soak it overnight in a diluted bleach solution (maybe 1:5 bleach:water) every month or two to kill the mildew. It works great, but the mat is starting to pull apart (it's seen hard use for that year + in our kitchen!), so I'm going to buy another.

I use water and brush it.. Sometimes I will put a little baking soda on the tip of the brush. Vinegar works too.

I usually use just a damp sponge to wipe it down, and then dry it with a paper towel. We have had it for a year now, have used it inside on wood flooring and outside on the grass, and it has stayed perfect and cleaned up easily. Great mat!

Add baking soda to the vinegar along with boiling water. Let soak a long time. Might have to do this a few times. Good luck. The discoloration will not disappear completely, but it will take away some spots and fade the rest.

I doubt you can, but there are sprays you can buy specifically for yoga mats that have tea tree oil in them for sanitation. I occasionally wipe mine with vinegar and water, but I'm not sure the manufacturer would recommend it. It will depend in what kind if yoga you do also, I get pretty sweaty doing Ashtunga, but if your into Hatha or some other gentle form you may not create too much grime!

I clean my pots with 50/50 solution of white vinegar and water. Bring to boil , repeat if not totally clean

Just clean using a vinegar mixture. The acid in the vinegar will break up and clean off the minerals.

I love the mat but it didn't come with instructions. Mine is getting dirty in the middle so I'm going to try washing it on gentle cycle and letting it air dry.

That's an interesting question. I don't believe I was given any special cleaning instructions with the arrival of the mat. I went to their site just now and read this, "The moisture-resistant skin is easy to clean after use." It looks as though you can go to the same site http://hemingweigh.com/?p=50 and leave a comment (perhaps to be answered), or dial the phone number and inquire. Hope this helps.

I clean mine with dish soap and use baking soda if it needs an abrasive scrub. I read that vinegar shouldn't be used on granite.
