Help, I got a stain on my Playmat!We recommend only using gentle cleaning solutions on your Playmat to avoid discolouration or damage, but if you have a stain on it, you may need to try something else! Try a paste of Baking Soda. Mix 3 parts baking soda to 1 part water, and mix. It should have the consistency of toothpaste. Use a toothbrush to apply the paste to the stain and leave it for 30mins, then cross your fingers! Wipe clean after 30mins and hopefully it works.
