Subject:Rejuvenation the floor mats.

I apologize if this is an often asked question, but I cannot access the
archives for the present time, so I  have to ask around.

My 81 transporter has black rubber mats throughout, in lieu of carpet. Best
thing that could ever be, considering my children and the use we get out of
it :)

Is there any secret product that will clean the rubber and give it back its
shine? WD-40 seems a bad idea <g>

I removed them and scrubbed them as best as I could, and I even tried some
of that stuff you spray on tires to give them that phony shine. (I only
applied it under the seats, and other areas where folks don't walk! Of
course those parts look great, but are unsafe at any speed :), and I would
like to get the rest of the mats looking that good. Any chance?

Thanks a lot

Best Regards from Utah,

John
