Try Murphys Oil Soap. This is an age old product that does a Great Job on matts; Outdoor GRILLS; Indoor stoves; stove / hood exhaust etc.. Most chemicals do not lift dirt and in particular dirt mixed with oils. This is right in the wheel house of this product. Once you lather-up the vinyl or rubber matte move out of the sun; let sit for 10 minutes or so, scrub again (you do not have to use more Murphy's just wet the scrub brush with water). Rinse and dry. Then use some Chemical Guys 'Silk Shine Dressing' (I have no relation with them at all). Both products are cheap and the Silk shine dressing dries with no oily residual. The finish will not be a gloss rather a matte finish, i.e., restores & protects the new finish but does not enhance it from a gloss perspective.

That's, that was helpful. I purchased the Weathertec cleaning products, but wow, they are expensive. My other trick during the winter is to take the mats out of my car when I'm gassing up, and hit them with the windshield brush. For some reason that liquid really gets a lot of dirt off. If you do that once a week during the bad months, you won't have such a hard time when you give them a full cleaning.

@sgp7482 Жыл бұрын

I have had this issue for the past 3 years, mud from construction sites dried on and no matter how hard I scrubbed the staining never came off. I finally found a sure fire method that's easy and not expensive. First power wash or scrub the mats to get the majority of dirt off then let dry. Second - spray stained areas with WD40 and scrub with a brush (important), I used a toothbrush for the grooves and corners, lastly rinse the mat off with a detergent. If you missed a couple spot do over - but it will come off. Mine look brand new!

Thank you for the video! I have had the weather tech mats in black for years. They are an absolute pain to clean! Mine never look good even after washing and scrubbing for a long time. I agree. The material holds too much dirt. Unfortunately, they don't make the husky mats for my older car. Interestingly, a local dealer said the grey and tan weather tech mats tend to look better for longer. I do use a natural tire shine on my mats to make them look better. They can get slippery though, as you said. Thanks for the tips! Great video!

The Stoner Trim Shine that comes in the aerosol tends to work pretty well and not too slippery. Just make sure to wipe them off to remove any excess after you apply the trim shine.

I’m a beach metal detectorist and track sand into the car and trunk. Just got my WT liners and watched this for maintenance. Typical cleaning methods, but what I didn’t think of, and now realize thanks to other comments, is the sand will scratch these liners and make them difficult to clean. Regardless, that’s why I bought them; right? So, clean and protect more often. It’s easier than what I have been doing! I reviewed all the comments and still nothing about using the fusion grey color? Hmmm… This guy replies to almost every comment. It shows he cares and keeps people like me coming back!

Regrets when you have a spillage or wet boots and the water rolls over the edge on a corner due to the hydrophobic nature. Mats like this are designed to 'wet' to disperse the liquid, evaporate as much as possible and prevent spillage.

Purple power gets all the oilfield grease off our trucks that nothing else will, don’t let it sit on the windows too long though. Then you’ll need some barkeeps friend and a soft sponge. Then follow up with simple green. The standard Oilfield truck wash is a soak in simple green then a drive down the highway in the rain. Good for most grime/grease and mud/chemicals.

I had weathertech mats in my Frontier. The "heel" area on the driver mat over time because discolored, almost greenish ( I assume it was from the winter/ salt ). They were stiff and the design would allow water to "drain" or run towards the rocker trim. So I had to put a piece of towel there to A. keep the water towards the center of the mat, B. absorb any water that did run that direction. Now with my Sierra, I went with the Husky liners, Xact Contour and they are ALOT better than the WT. They are soft and pliable, not to mention there is a raised "wall" on the outside of the mat so the water should stay "on" the mat as opposed to running towards the rocker trim.

#Pristine I personally prefer the Husky mats over weather tech. Living in Oklahoma the husky holds up better than the weather tech does in the heat. After a few months in southern heat the weather tech mats will begin to fold over and lose there shape unlike the husky ones. Also the rubber finish appears better. I work for a dealership and I have a buddy that owns an accessories shop and we both recommend Husky over the weather tech even though he stocks both there. But good video!

Hello, my situation is a little different. Basically, I ended up getting a new car that is the same as my old car, but it is black instead of grey. Do you think using the solution finish black on grey mats would adequately recolor the mats?

Solution finish black would not work on grey mats.

I would guess if you painted them they would chip and scratch fairly easily as well.

I scrub them with my car wash soap, let them dry, then wipe them down with mcguires protectant.

how do you restore faded red mats?

@hammertimee777 5 жыл бұрын

Some OEM plastic floor mats come with warning labels telling you to avoid scrubbing them because doing so will cause more microscopic grooves, pores, and scratches in the material, causing them to get dirty quicker, The best way is to rinse them and avoid scrubbing them unless absolutely necessary. The more you scrub them, the faster they get dirty.

So true!! We notice the more scratches from rocks and feet etc the harder they are to clean. Great tip!! Scrubbing can def add more fine scratches. Thanks buddy!! Chad

So does this mean if you used a softer brush rather than a stiff brush like a tire brush be fine?

TheMidnightNarwhal least aggressive is always best because the stiffer the brush the higher the chance of microscopic scratches

Scrub the floor mats and rinse them off to clean them. Got it!

What if you use your method to clean the mats then use any plastic trim shine.. let the trim shine be absorbed and THEN wash them with a degreaser? I am wondering if this would make them look like new but then they won't be slippery?

We will use Stoner Trim Shine aerosol to finish them when need to do faster and have had great success. Allow it to dry into the mat like you said and wipe down any excess.

Weathertech makes their own cleaners. I would be curious to see if their formulation works better.

Their cleaners are very expensive. I did better elsewhere with Mother's products.

@erik996 5 жыл бұрын

They are expensive, but they work great. I'm not sure there's anything special about the cleaner, but the protectant is awesome. Once the mats are clean and dry, spray/mist the protectant on it and spread it around with a damp sponge, then let dry. Once dry, the mats have the same satin black appearance with just a hint of sheen, and are not slippery at all. Literally look new.

@@RiceGrainz I have no clue. I suppose it could be. It's a milky white liquid in the bottle, so whatever is dissolved in the liquid remains on the surface when the liquid carrier evaporates.

Has anyone had their mats look like they have oily spots? Mine are tackey on both sides, do they start to break down after a few years?

Great idea. but........how much do you charge a customer for this task? Nearly the same as new set of mats? Thanks.

This is included in every stage 2 full detail with do here @ the shop. If someone just wanted this done I would estimate around $30-$50.00 but generally then just go for the full detail.
