Sup dudes. I have seen people mention reusing reefmat or fleece rolls in general but not a ton of good guidance, so after reusing mine a few times, I decided to document my process and hope to get some tips from others. If you do this too, I'd love some tips you may have. Maybe skip the rinse, soak in bleach or longer wash cycle?

Look, everyone knows fleece roller are meant to reduce maintenance and save time. This process is probably for a very select number of weirdos like me. It takes some time, but is not super hard, saves 20 bucks (for reefmat 500) and makes me feel a tiny bit good that I am not trashing as much plastic. Yeah I get one roll is like peeing on a house fire, but its the little wins to make me feel warm and fuzzy.

 
This is really cool and something I never even considered. For rinsing the roll in the shower I wonder if getting one of those toilet paper floor stands would work.
