This size is compatible with the original MISTI.
Please note: This version does not include printed guides. To reduce paper waste, the packaging may mention a guide on the back—we’re in the process of updating it. For printed guides, please check out our version 2 mats.

Quick Features
• Updated with a black printed acetate sheet for better stencil visibility
• Slightly stickier feel than Version 2 for a stronger grip
• Grips cardstock and stencils—no tape or adhesive needed
• Works best with smooth cardstock
• Ideal for ink blending and stenciling

Care Tips
• Clean with water or a photopolymer-safe cleaner as needed
• Avoid alcohol and chemical-based cleaners
• Use a non-scratch dish sponge to gently remove small particles like bits of die-cut paper
• Avoid scratchy materials and sharp edges
• Do not use embossing powders, glitters, or other fine powders over the mat—they can be difficult to remove
• Do not place foiled images in direct contact with the mat—the foil may transfer and is very difficult to remove
• Store on the included acetate sheet, or between two sheets of parchment paper
• Avoid wax paper—wax may transfer to the mat
• Do not stack heavy items on top for an extended time

To minimize paper warping and tearing, gently peel the mat away from your paper.

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.
