Title: Rubber Floor Mats Post by: Martin on October 29, 2004, 08:41:38 PM I have the original floor mats in my car - rubber with the blue fleck. The mats are in very good condition, but I can't get them to shine up.
Does anybody know of a good rubber reviver/polish that will bring up the appearance of the mats without losing the effect of the blue fleck? Thanks for your help. Martin Title: Re: Rubber Floor Mats Post by: craiga on October 29, 2004, 11:06:36 PM Martin,
Vasoline will do the job, but there's a multitude of tyre shine products that should also work. I buy the Meguirs Long Lasting Tyre Gel and its expensive but REALLY good, and does last. Hope that helps, Craig. Title: Re: Rubber Floor Mats Post by: Martin on October 30, 2004, 04:52:09 AM Vasoline, Huh? Back in the old days (when I was a lad) Vasoline used to be used with other rubber products!
Thanks, Craig Title: Re: Rubber Floor Mats Post by: Martin on November 01, 2004, 09:12:50 AM Vasoline has brought up the shine on the mats really well.
Thanks again. Title: Re: Rubber Floor Mats Post by: customFC on November 01, 2004, 10:57:07 AM Hey Martin.
Good to hear your mats are shinin'. I would not use the vaseline for a long period as it is petroleum based, and rubber does not like that. That's why they don't recommend it on your other rubber products either. ;) IMHO, find something made specifically for tyres. (For your mats that is) :) Regards Alex |
