During daily use of your car, your car floor will attract dust, mud, and dirt attached to the soles of your shoes. If you like to eat and drink in your car, you have to worry about food crumbs and drinks. Therefore, it is particularly important to take the time to thoroughly clean your Car Mats. Especially for car owners who like off-road driving and outdoor activities. Regular deep cleaning of Car Floor Mats can make you and your passengers feel more comfortable when traveling, and it can also extend the life of your car. There is nothing more pleasant than stepping into a clean, tidy, and spotless car when you travel on a daily basis. If you want to keep your car clean, it is best to clean it as thoroughly as possible. Follow the steps below to get a long-lasting clean feeling.
Step 1: Remove the car floor mats
First, take the mats out of the car so that you can see the original car floor under the mats. Without the protection of the mats, dust and dirt can easily accumulate under the mats. Try to put the mats in a clean place to avoid getting dirtier when cleaning the car. You can hang them on a clothesline or place them on the grass.
Step 2: Clean the mats
For carpet mats, use a shop vac or car vacuum to suck up loose dust and debris. Throw away any trash in your car. For rubber and TPE car floor mats, you can use a high-pressure hose to flush away stuck-on dirt and debris, most of which will slide right off. Give the surface a simple clean first, then scrub it in the next step.
Step 3: Scrub the mats
For carpet mats, you can use a car carpet cleaner. Use a spray bottle to lightly spray the mat surface and use a brush to scrub the carpet. Don't use too much force, or you may damage the fabric. Don't forget to brush the back of the mat. When you're done, rinse the mat with water to remove any excess cleaner. For rubber and TPE car floor mats, you can use car cleaning fluid or regular dishwashing detergent mixed with an equal amount of water. You don't have to treat rubber and TPE Floor Mats as carefully as you would carpet mats, so don't be shy. Pay special attention to the edges and corners of the rubber mats. Many all-weather car mats have a textured design to provide better anti-slip effect, so be sure to clean between the gaps. After the mats are clean, rinse them with water. Step 4: Let the mats dry again
For carpet mats, you can put the mats in the sun for a few hours to let them dry naturally before putting them back in the car. For rubber and TPE floor mats, most of the water will flow out immediately, but you can wipe off the excess water with a towel. You can also put them in the sun to dry. After the mats are dried, you can put them back in the car for use and enjoy a clean and tidy interior space.
Summary
Whether it is carpet mats, Rubber Floor Mats or TPE floor mats, regular deep cleaning can make the interior space cleaner and tidier, and can better protect the vehicle floor. During maintenance, different cleaning methods can be used according to the different materials of the car mats to achieve better cleaning results. A clean interior space can give you and your passengers a comfortable driving experience, and a clean car floor mat can also make your vehicle floor have a longer service life.
