Any budding detailers suggest how to clean and restore my old rubber mats back to their former glory - look in my new RRS  Wanted a Series 2 LR since childhood but previously owned MY16 Disco Sport HSE TD4 Auto, MY13 RR Sport Black Edition TDV6 Auto, MY10 RR Sport HSE TDV6 Auto, 2007 Freelander 1 Freestyle TD4 Soft Top, 2009 Freelander 2 GS TD4 Auto, 2007 Freelander 2 GS TD4, 2004 Disco 2 Metropolis Auto, 2002 Disco 2 GS, 2000 Freelander 1 SE TD4 SW

Still hoping for a S2 one day!

Do you have a pressure washer, if so, give them a blast. Then wash with a shampoo mix and a soft brush, rinse then dry.
Finish off with a non-shiny dressing, something like 303 Aerospace protectant (stay, then wipe until dry) or Poorbous Natural look dressing.

Et voila, mats as good as new  ON THE WAY: BMW F21 M140i

Problem with using anything on rubber mats, as soon as you stand in a puddle and then get in the water drys leaves muddy residue and your back to square one needing to clean them again

Fair point Nick

I like the carpet mats best but not as practical - especially with the caravan on CL/CS's

Speaking of which might be looking at a Swift Conquerer 645 at weekend - liking the layout and grey finish so hopefully less black marks  Wanted a Series 2 LR since childhood but previously owned MY16 Disco Sport HSE TD4 Auto, MY13 RR Sport Black Edition TDV6 Auto, MY10 RR Sport HSE TDV6 Auto, 2007 Freelander 1 Freestyle TD4 Soft Top, 2009 Freelander 2 GS TD4 Auto, 2007 Freelander 2 GS TD4, 2004 Disco 2 Metropolis Auto, 2002 Disco 2 GS, 2000 Freelander 1 SE TD4 SW

.......you're doing it wrong Nick
I've had good results by spaying it and then wiping till it's 90% dry. Agree it can be streaky, but I generally only find that the case if too much product was used

Another one to consider is Matte Dash from GTechniq C6 (Matte Dash)  ON THE WAY: BMW F21 M140i

Thanks for the heads up Nick will discuss it with SWMBO and see how she reacts - she normally runs a mile at the mention of a rally and/or LR's so might be a hard sell

Only been away twice this year though and getting itchy feet  Wanted a Series 2 LR since childhood but previously owned MY16 Disco Sport HSE TD4 Auto, MY13 RR Sport Black Edition TDV6 Auto, MY10 RR Sport HSE TDV6 Auto, 2007 Freelander 1 Freestyle TD4 Soft Top, 2009 Freelander 2 GS TD4 Auto, 2007 Freelander 2 GS TD4, 2004 Disco 2 Metropolis Auto, 2002 Disco 2 GS, 2000 Freelander 1 SE TD4 SW

don't think it will happen this year, they are talking about midlands been the area of choice, and it will be a Caravan Club site, Bill Turner is the one who is looking at organising it and its at the early days, might be going to Halewood in Sept though if you fancy a day out, you can pick me up on your way past and i can travel in style

Trip in September sounds tempting and if it's a weekday SWMBO will be working so wont affect her

Keep me informed and I'd be happy to pick you up  Wanted a Series 2 LR since childhood but previously owned MY16 Disco Sport HSE TD4 Auto, MY13 RR Sport Black Edition TDV6 Auto, MY10 RR Sport HSE TDV6 Auto, 2007 Freelander 1 Freestyle TD4 Soft Top, 2009 Freelander 2 GS TD4 Auto, 2007 Freelander 2 GS TD4, 2004 Disco 2 Metropolis Auto, 2002 Disco 2 GS, 2000 Freelander 1 SE TD4 SW
