1st - hit them with Resolve carpet stain remover
2nd - scrubbed them with a rag
3rd - hit them with the Bissel carpet cleaner
4th - pressure washed them really good
5th - hit them with the Bissel again (dry) to pull all the water
6th - let them dry in the sun

2.5 years old and they look like new again! :party36:

Saved $130 because I was just about to order new Lloyd Ultimates...

Cried as I put gas in it for the first time...

I also took it up to my Garage to find how much of a drop I need for her trailer, picked out a light bar, started getting quotes from upfitters, and came to the decision that work truck or not--she's getting exhaust, and these steelies definitely need to be powdercoated black (Because this silver/black/grey color combination she wears now just ain't gonna cut it.)

That's some dedication to keeping your floor mats looking new. Mine are in plastic bags I told the dealer not to put them in. I got a set of the Ram slush mats for my 09 CC and then they went into my 13 CC and now I have the back in my garage and have the fronts in my 14 RC. I hate carpet mats they are too much trouble to clean and I don't have the patience to keep them clean like you.

Lol! I don't know if it's dedication or OCD! :crazy:

I prefer the rubber matts too, but I wear dress shoes almost daily and the rubber matts tend to trash the back and heels on them. :(

I have the similar issue with the carpet mats. I wear shoes with white bottoms and the carpet always stains them.

Went thru that myself and stupidly sold off the WeatherTechs. Should just keep a set of sneakers in my truck for the times I wear the dress shoes.

As far as how you cleaned them, pretty much how I do it. Only thing I do more is SpotShot spray the "Ram" embroidery to get the dirt stains out.

Yeah, I don't remember how bright the embroidery was new, but I think that Resolve stuff did a decent job. I'll have to try SpotShot next time.

I am a bit of a clean freak, so an hour spent cleaning 2 little floor matts is rather enjoyable for me, lol! :crazy:

Got that city bus-sized monster that Ram calls a muffler removed and swapped with something a little more my style. That Cherry Bomb Extreme is just obnoxious enough to give me a sh*t-eating grin every time I turn the key. Also the parking garage at work is now one of my favorite places to drive.

I couldn't believe when I took that muffler off, it's taller than my son.
