Does anyone know of a way to clean the clear floormats? My gf and I both have them in our cars to protect the regular mats. They have yellowed over time and we have try some apc and some soap and water and it doesnt seem to fix the yellowing. Was just curious if anyone knew how to get it back to clear.

only thing i can tell you is try soaking them in bleach for a hour or so then wash them with dish soap ...good luck

Probably cheaper to replace than to repair.
IMO, one can't reverse the aging process.

OTOH, Diamondite makes a spray product which is said to replace the plasticizers, oils, and polymers that are lost and is indicative of the browning/yellowing.

They are trash. Black ones will replace them nicely

might not be a bad idea! I will try some bleach on one of the smaller ones and see what happens otherwise I see a replacement in my future
