You can’t stick them in the washing machine and spraying cleaning gear on them makes them wet and smell. Also, what you are doing is wetting it all down and spreading it around the mat. Floor mats are generally made of synthetic fibres so they are kind of waterproof. However, they do soak up water. This is just due to the wicking effect and the surface area of the carpet pile.
Most of the crap that ends up on your mats will dry out quite quickly due to them being positioned directly near the air vents in the footwells. It’s only the water in the crap that makes it stick in place.
Clean And Restore The Weft
You just need 1 item from your toolbox to clean your mats. A wire brush.
The stiff bristles break down and loosen all the stuff making your mats look dirty. It also plumps up the fibres of the mat to make the pile less flat. Restoring the carpet pile (or weft) helps it to absorb light better so they look blacker and therefore cleaner.
Brush the entire mat in one direction at a time, eventually brushing it in all 4 directions.
This loosens all of the dried in crap and allows the carpet pile to stand up again. The comparison photos were taken only 2 minutes apart and no cleaners were used.
Do not jet wash the mats.
