Some messes on your floor mats need a 2-part system to clean and protect the mats. Introducing the WeatherTech TechCare FloorLiner and FloorMat Cleaner system for cleaning your rubber mats.

Then spray the protector to keep your mats looking newer longer. This cleaner is a biodegradable foam that works to lift the dirt and scuff marks so you can easily wipe them off. The protector adds antislip protection and dries with no residue. As an added bonus, this product is made in the USA. Some users of the product did state the product wasn't worth the price tag.

Half of getting your mats clean is the cleaner, and the other half is the scrub brush. Mothers Carpet and Upholstery Cleaning Brush is the creme de la creme when it comes to floor mat scrubbers.

It has a lightweight design and ergonomic handle along with stiff bristles to make it easy to scrub your mats. The Mothers brush also has soft grips to make it easy to hold.

What I like about this floor mat cleaner is the scrubbing head on the can. You don't have to worry about having a scrub brush because it's right there. The foam formula in the 18 oz. can also work nicely to penetrate deep into the floor mat and pull up the embedded dirt. It's also designed to eliminate odors and leave a pleasant smell. Some product reviewers noted that the scrubber is hard to get off, and the product has a potent smell.

Another rubber and liner cleaner you might want to consider investing in for your floor mats is Adam's Rubber Mat & Liner Cleaner. The Adam's Cleaner is fairly easy to use and works fast. You only have to wait about 30 seconds for it to work. It is a foam cleanser that activates as you scrub it. And it doesn't leave a slippery surface on your mat. However, it's not shiny. The cleaner gives mats a bit of a dull surface. The sprayer also breaks easily.
