Quick Review: Blackfire Mat Cleaner and Protectant

[Desertnate]

It appears to do a good job. Although I think McKess is better. Strong smell from McKees though. I have the new GRIOTS 3-1 Mat/wheel/tire cleaner waiting in the wings. Interested to see how it does on the floor liners.

Griot'''s Garage 3-in-1 Wheel-Tire-Mat Cleaner

Interesting to hear you like the McKee's better. I haven't looked at their product line in a while since I go through products much more slowly these days. I'll clean my mats outside on the driveway, so I'm not too worried about smell.

I didn't know the Griots product existed until I saw it at Autozone yesterday while picking up some parts. I too would like to hear what you think about it.

If you have Adam’s Graphene spray coating USE THIS on your rubber/polymer matts. You will thank me later.

I will always have this in my arsenal for this specific reason. Darkens up nice… absolutely no slickness. Only other thing that works ok to make Matt’s look decent is WT protectant.

I do not, and would never thought of using an exterior product on my mats. I may give it a try.

It's good to hear there is no slickness. Many years ago I used a trim protectant on our mats (maybe 253 or 303?) and it made the mats REALLY slippery for a while. I couldn't buff the stuff off well enough to fix the problem either, so it just had to wear off. My wife was not amused... Since then I've not attempted to lay down a protective layer because I didn't want to risk it.

I like this stuff, it also works well if you have any plastidip surfaces on your vehicles…

It was actually recommended buy Adam’s in a winter washing video. Seen [mention]Sizzle Chest [/mention] put it on convertible tops. Decent on paint but seems to work well in other places.

Do a test spot. You’ll finish the whole Matt
