Sticky Request: cleaning the rubber floors.

can we get a sticky on this? seems every week theres another 'how to clean the rubber floor' thread....


Edit:

First: Vaccumme or sweep up loose dirt.

Second: apply a lil watter, like 2 cups.

Third: Use Dish soap, like Dawn, Simple Green, ArmorAll, OB205, Any of those will work well.

fourth: Use stiff brush and scrub the floor. Let the soap do the work.

Five: Use wet/dry vac to suck up dirty water
optional: Rinse with clean water then suck up again

Sixth: dry with terry cloth Towel.

Seven: Apply Armorall. LIGHTLY!
ArmorAll will make it slippery, but will give it that 'New' look.

OB is the only thing The I have found that REALLY works well. While Simple Green is pretty good, and pretty close to OB, the OB still works better IMHO.

You should make it! Then ask a mod to make it a sticky.

I have had tremendous success using armor all on the rubber floor in my ranger... It does make it a little slick though, so go light in the areas where your feet will be... Look at my car domain page, i dont have any before pics, but there are pics of the inside after i used it and it really gets all the dirt and grime out. http://www.cardomain.com/ride/2426232/1
