6.5×8.5 Grip Mat – Black

The 6.5″ x 8.5″ Grip Mat – Black by Waffle Flower is a versatile surface designed to hold cardstock and stencils securely while you work. Updated with a black printed acetate sheet, this grip mat provides better visibility for lighter stencils and papers so alignment is easier. The slightly stickier feel gives a stronger grip than the previous version, helping prevent shifting during ink blending, stenciling, or stamping. This craft grip mat for stenciling works best with smooth cardstock and removes the need for tape or temporary adhesive, cutting down on prep time and residue. Care tips include cleaning with water or a photopolymer-safe cleaner, avoiding alcohol or harsh chemicals, and gently removing paper by peeling the mat away to minimize warping or tearing. Between projects, store it on the included acetate sheet or between parchment paper and avoid heavy items on top to preserve the surface. Disclaimer Grip Mats are made from soft, high-quality photopolymer. Slight variations such as air bubbles, surface cloudiness, or staining from certain inks are normal and do not affect performance. Over time and with use, wear and tear should be expected. Always handle with care and avoid contact with sharp tools, harsh chemicals, or abrasive materials.
