How to Clean Your WeatherTech Rubber Mats Like a Pro

Imagine stepping into your car after a St. Paul winter, your boots tracking in a gritty mix of snow, salt, and Minnesota mud. Your trusty WeatherTech rubber mats stand guard, trapping the mess before it stains your interior. But now, those mats are caked with grime, looking more like a frozen tundra than the rugged protectors they’re meant to be. Fear not! At Rice Street Car Wash, our self-serve bays, equipped with 10 powerful functions and handy mat clamps, make cleaning your WeatherTech mats a breeze. For just $4 to start for 4 minutes, you’ll restore their sleek, black shine, keeping your car’s interior pristine and ready for St. Paul’s next adventure.

Why WeatherTech Mats Deserve Extra Love

WeatherTech mats are built to battle Minnesota’s toughest elements—blizzards, slush, or summer dirt from Como Park picnics. Their deep grooves and high edges trap grime like a fortress, but that means they need regular cleaning to stay effective. Our self-serve bays are the perfect arena to blast away salt, mud, and debris, ensuring your mats look as ruggedly handsome as the day you bought them.

Step-by-Step Guide to Sparkling Mats

Our self-serve bays put you in control with 10 functions designed to tackle even the messiest mats. Follow this quick guide to make your WeatherTech mats gleam, using our mat clamps to make the job easier than ever. And if you’re using a credit card, start washing right away—the timer starts ticking after you swipe!

1. Secure the Mats: Pop your WeatherTech mats out of your car and clip them into our sturdy mat clamps. They hold your mats upright like a canvas on an easel, letting you clean every groove without wrestling them on the ground.

2. Tire and Engine Cleaner: Begin with this powerful low-pressure spray to loosen the caked-on salt and mud. Its potent formula melts gritty winter slush like a warm spring thaw, targeting the deep grooves where debris hides.

3. Concentrated Low Pressure Soap: Drape your mats in a rich, sudsy blanket. This biodegradable soap clings to dirt, softening stubborn grime like a gentle rain dissolving dust, prepping the mats for a deeper clean.

4. Foamy Brush Soap: Grab the soft foam brush and scrub those grooves. The frothy bristles glide like a cloud, lifting dirt and salt from every crevice, leaving your mats looking revitalized.

5. High Pressure Rinse: Blast away the suds with a forceful rinse. Watch as streams of water sweep across your mats, revealing their sleek, black surface, as clean as a freshly paved Rice Street.

Pro Tip: Most WeatherTech mat cleanings take just 2-3 minutes, so your $4 for 4 minutes gives you plenty of time to perfect the job. Focus on the grooves where salt and dirt collect, and use the mat clamps to flip the mats for a thorough clean on both sides.

Perfect Timing for Minnesota Seasons

In St. Paul, winter’s salty slush and summer’s muddy trails are no match for your WeatherTech mats—but they need regular TLC to keep performing. Winter salt can cake into a crusty layer, dulling your mats’ look and feel. Summer brings dirt and pollen, turning your mats into a gritty mess. Our self-serve bays, with water-saving Variable Frequency Drives and eco-friendly soaps, make cleaning quick, affordable, and green, preserving both your mats and the Mississippi River’s clarity.

Pair It with the Petit 360 for a Full Shine
