Learn the best way to clean and store your Attack on Titan playmat, including tips for the Double Takedown design and general playmat maintenance.

Quick answer

Clean your Attack on Titan playmat with a soft, damp cloth and mild soap, then store it flat in its original box or a playmat tube to avoid creases and fading.

Why proper care matters for your playmat

Your Attack on Titan playmat sees a lot of action during games. Spills, dust, and repeated rolling can wear down the artwork and fabric over time. The Double Takedown design features detailed art of Levi and Mikasa, so keeping it clean preserves the visual impact and extends the mat's life.

Storing the mat incorrectly—like leaving it in a damp room or rolling it too tightly—can cause permanent creases or damage the printed surface. Following a simple routine helps you avoid these problems without extra expense.

What you'll need

A soft microfiber cloth (avoid paper towels that can scratch), a bowl of lukewarm water, a drop of mild dish soap, and a flat storage space or the original cardboard box the playmat came in.

Step-by-step cleaning and storage guide

1. Clear the surface: Remove cards, dice, and any debris from the playmat. Shake off loose crumbs or dust outside. Check for sticky spots before moving to the next step.
2. Prepare a gentle cleaning solution: Mix a few drops of mild dish soap into a bowl of lukewarm water. Dampen a microfiber cloth—do not soak it. Wring until barely moist. Too much water can seep into the mat's edges and damage the inner layer.
3. Wipe the surface in straight motions: Gently wipe the playmat from one end to the other, following the art direction. Avoid circular scrubbing which can distort the print. Rinse the cloth with clean water and go over the mat again to remove any soap residue. Never use alcohol, bleach, or abrasive cleaners—they can fade the ink.
4. Air-dry completely: Lay the playmat flat on a clean, dry towel in a well-ventilated area away from direct sunlight. Let it dry fully for at least 2–3 hours. Do not use a hair dryer or heater—heat can warp the mat.
5. Roll or fold for storage: Once dry, roll the playmat loosely with the artwork facing outward (or fold it along its natural crease lines if it came folded). Place it inside the original cardboard box or a playmat tube. Avoid tight rolling—it creates permanent creases. Store flat if you have space.
6. Store in a cool, dry place: Keep the playmat away from humidity, direct sunlight, and extreme temperatures. A closet or drawer works well. Check every few months for dust or moisture; re-clean if needed.
