    I need to learn to practice not pressing so hard with the rotary cutter myself!

    I soak mine once a month or after a heavy cutting weekend..especially if I cut flannel..I use dawn dish soap and a crocheted pot scrubby on it...I have a Mat Smoother, but find it does no better than the soaking/scrubbing!
