Default Cleaned my floormats

BEFORE:



AFTER:





First I vaccumed the mats. Next got folex carpet cleaner and sprayed a decent amount on them, letting the product pull up some stains. Using a scrub brush I worked the bad areas spraying more folex where needed. Then I took the mats down to the carwash and sprayed them clean and vaccumed dry. For the 9 bucks total it took id say it was worth every penny! Since I had such sucsess Im going to do the whole car when I get a day off.

Did you rent one or had one laying around? I want to pull my seats out and clean everything but am not too exited to be putting that much elbow grease into the scrubbing lol

Nice. Be careful letting folex sit too long though. Look into the bissell auto pro heat. It'll make those look even better and it's not too expensive.
