TikTok hack revives car mats: A DIY solution for car owners

The condition of car mats sometimes leaves much to be desired. However, you don't need to go to a car wash to clean them—you can do it yourself at home, and most importantly, effectively.

Car mats protect the vehicle's floor by trapping dirt, dust, and sand and preventing them from spreading throughout the interior. However, they occasionally require thorough cleaning.

How best to do this to restore their original appearance? Vacuuming is not enough; more robust measures are needed. You don't have to take the car to a detailing salon. You can use a popular method that is gaining recognition on TikTok.

Mud, sand, leaves – all these contaminants end up on your shoes and the car mats. In winter, the car's interior often looks less aesthetic, and frequent cleaning is pointless due to unpredictable weather conditions.

With the arrival of spring, it's time for more significant cleaning, both at home and in the car. The condition of car mats may require special attention. How can you restore their fresh appearance? You can use special machines available at some gas stations.

If you don't want to spend money on a car wash, try the popular method from TikTok. Armen Adamjan, a well-known TikToker from the Creative Explained profile, shares various clever hacks, including cleaning tips. One of his videos has gained a lot of popularity. The TikToker demonstrated how to clean car mats easily.

He shared the idea of cleaning car mats using a drill and a new toilet brush. He started by cutting off the handle of the brush, leaving a piece of plastic so that he could place it on the drill. Then, he turned on the drill and applied it to the mat until all the dirt was removed. – “It really works; great idea, especially if you have a dog,” – we read in the comments.
