Wash carpet floor mats?
Hey guys! Just wondering, would be a good idea to wash the carpet floor mats? With the snow clearing up, i'm barely dragging in any salt or snow now, so i want to clean them to make them look nice again!
If you guys don't recommend i throw them in the washer, what would you recommend, other than going to a car wash with those powerful vacuum cleaners? |

Try Folex. It's a good carpet cleaner/stain remover.

I put them in the washer by themselves and set the washer to "hand wash" , which was a very gentle cycle. Then let them air dry in the sun. All the dirt and salt were gone! (then it snowed again !)

I take mine to a DIY car wash, clip them onto he rest of the wall brackets, soak them with the soap solution, let it soak while I wash the car, then rinse with hi pressure rinse.
