Summary
Measures 15 X 20 inches (38 X 51cm), perforated down the middle so that you can tear it in half if it's too big (= two pieces of 15 X 10 inches each). You can also cut it with scissors to make dozens of smaller pieces.
Unless you have a major spill (an entire bottle of acid) each sheet will last many months.
Detail
When it comes to protecting yourself (and your furniture!) from spilling drops of acid, there are a few ways of working safely.
In many shops, they place some tissue or kitchen towel on the table, to work over, to catch any drips.
Personally, I prefer to hold a tissue in my hand as I work (see the videos).
The best method is to work over this anti-acid mat, it's made of a special acid-neutralising material. It not only makes any acid spills harmless, but even stops the fumes.
Comment about the picture: for the sake of the photo we used a dummy bottle (no acid), in real life I hope the user would be wearing protective gloves!
Our Tests
We tested this by filling a standard acid refill bottle with an extra-strong solution of acid, and carefully 'fixing' the bottle so that we knew it would leak.
We put the bottle in one of our leak-proof containers along with two circles of hazmat. We then left it in a car so that it bumped about until all the acid leaked out. When we opened the container, the bottle was empty, the fabric was slightly damp, there was a slight smell of acid - but no signs of actual wet acid.
A great product for protecting the surface where you are carrying out acid testing in the event of a spillage. Very quick delivery as usual. Happy to recommend and will be using QuickTest again in...

The mat covers the area well and although we hope to not have any acid spillages it is good to know that if the worst happens we have some protection in place.
