How to clean CUSTOARMOR car mats
Maintaining the pristine look of your CUSTOARMOR car mats is surprisingly simple, especially compared to traditional carpeted versions. Because our high-end "eco-leather" and polyurethane (PU) surfaces are non-porous, they offer up to five times more stain resistance than carpet, keeping dirt and contaminants on the surface where they are easily reached.
For daily upkeep, a quick vacuum is usually all that’s needed to remove loose sand or debris. For light spills, dust, or pet hair, the "Wipe'n'Go" method is highly effective; simply use a damp microfiber cloth to restore the finish without the need for heavy soaking. This is a major advantage of our mats, which are engineered to handle everyday messes with minimal effort.
Unlike rugged rubber liners, CUSTOARMOR luxury mats feature a complex five-layer construction that often includes memory foam and soft sponges. Hosing them down or taking them to a car wash is not recommended, as water can soak into these porous inner layers, leading to mold growth, foul odors, or the degradation of the adhesives holding the layers together.
When dealing with tougher messes, avoid harsh chemicals that can strip the UV-resistant coating or cause the synthetic leather to crack. Instead, use a mild, pH-neutral soap or a warm mixture of water and vinegar to safely lift salt residue and stains. It is critical to wipe the mats dry with a clean towel immediately after cleaning ensuring no moisture seeps into the quilted seams.
Safety is also a priority during maintenance. While leather conditioners can be used on passenger mats to maintain suppleness, never apply them to the driver’s side mat. Such treatments can make the surface dangerously slippery near the pedals. By sticking to these surface-cleaning methods and avoiding water immersion, you ensure your mats provide high-end protection and style for the life of your vehicle.
