  • Patent number: 5069951
    Abstract: A magnetized bath mat removably connectable atop the magnetically attractive bottom of a bathtub or shower stall including a thin, flexible magnetic base sheet permanently adhered to and beneath a thin, flexible non-magnetic upper sheet. The base sheet is permanently magnetized so that its bottom surface is releasably attractable to the tub or shower bottom to provide a high degree of slip resistance between the bath mat and the tub or shower bottom during normal use. The upper sheet is coextensive with the base sheet and has a top surface which is generally slip resistant to a user standing or sitting thereatop under wet conditions of use. A very thin intermediate sheet having an opaque coloring similar to that of the upper sheet and permanently adhered between the base and upper sheets may be provided to prevent visual color bleeding of the dark-colored base sheet through to the upper sheet.
