PORTLAND, Ore. - Iwata-Medea, Inc., the world's leading airbrush product manufacturer, today announced the addition of the new Artool line of Cutting Mats, constructed from a new three-ply polymer composite material that makes them the most flexible and durable mats available.

Artool Cutting Mats feature a self-healing surface for maximum longevity and toughness with repeated use, whether using art and mat knives or rotary cutters. If one of these mats should ever become distorted because of improper storage, simply place it in sunlight or hot water until it becomes pliable, and then lay the mat perfectly flat again.

An added feature of the Artool Cutting Mats is that the black and green mats are two cutting mats in one. Whenever a different colored mat is desired for cutting, simply flip it over. The translucent mats are perfect for light tables and cutting situations where a colored mat is not suitable.

Other features include non-marring & non-glare surface, non-slipping for added safety on worktables, calibrated grid lines for accuracy and a perfect surface for writing and drawing.

The Artool Cutting Mats are the ideal choice for artists, designers, photographers, illustrators, calligraphers, hobbyists and model makers.

For over 25 years, Iwata-Medea has been crafting the finest airbrush products for the world's top professional artists. The devotion to quality and craftsmanship is reflected in the work of artists worldwide.
