Tip of the Week: 
WeatherTech Floor Mat Maintenance Guide
Regular Cleaning (Every 2–4 Weeks)
Remove Mats from VehicleAlways clean them outside the truck — this prevents water from getting into the carpet.
Rinse FirstUse a hose to remove loose dirt, mud, and gravel.
Shake out debris from channels and edges.
Wash With Mild CleanerUse mild dish soap + warm water
Scrub with a soft brush or microfiber cloth
Focus on grooves and raised edges
Avoid harsh degreasers — they can leave the mats looking dull or chalky.
Pressure Washing (Safe — With Caution)Keep nozzle at least 12–18 inches away
Avoid focusing on edges for long periods
Do not use hot steam
Too much pressure can warp edges over time.
DryingAir dry fully before reinstalling
Lay flat in shade
Avoid direct extreme heat (like leaving them in the sun in 100°+ temps)
Reinstalling while wet can trap moisture in the carpet.
