Cleaning the Carpet Floor Mats

mm5164 · 06-28-2005, 09:09 AM

What is the best way to clean the carpet floor mats? I have the tan interior, and after a messy winter there are black spots and such on the mats. Can I just toss them in the washer, or should I scrub them with a soapy brush and let them dry in the sun?

Whichever is easier. If you put them in the washer, have them face out, and use gentle cycle.

I do mine with a nylon brush and soapy water, outside. First, I spray the black spots with WD40. Works great.
