what product do you use to clean and sterilize your mats?

i'm looking for something that is generically available and that it spray and wipe - no rinsing required.

dont gyms use like a watered down bleach solution? im sure you could use the same?

[TimG]

can you wash with a cut bleach solution and not rinse the mats after wards with no ill effects?

use something with alcohol in it to evaporate the water. or how about windex? good for the joints too

we use hot water mixed with bleach and a mop after every practice. It seems to do the trick
