Matted silicone skirts

Here and easy why to get matted silicone skirts
From being stuck together. Take skirts both closed ends in your fingers and if you have a simi sharp board run the skirt back and fourth half dozen times. And the skirt will puff out back to single strands. Click on pics they will turn upright.
