    I was thinking the same thing....but I have a round tub so I'm going to have to try it too. I think it will fit.

    I have large mat and I think I'll get a flexible drain cover and then put it in the bottom of our 48" shower and let it soak.

    When I clean my oven racks I use a large garbage bag, placing my racks inside and pouring in the liquid & cleaner I'm using & then I just roll the open end a couple of times & place several clothes pins along the edge. Lay it flat on the patio for a while. I'm thinking this would work with the large cutting mats also, don't you think?
