The video explains how to clean car floor mats in two products and a hose in a few easy steps.

First, Smitty's Detail Garage hosed down the mat under high pressure before spraying the mats with a non-acid wheel and tire cleaner.

Then, the stains were buffed out and the mats hosed down again to rinse them of the cleaner.

Finally, Smitty's Detail Garage sprayed a diluted hyper dressing over the mats and gently spread it evenly over the surface until they shined like new.

The video features a Jeep Wrangler rubber mat that has mud all over it.

By the end, the mat looks like it's fresh off the factory floor.

The detailer suggests in the comments to dilute the dressing four to one for floor mats.

Commenters on the video remain rather skeptical of the job.

One said: "Or just buy new ones" with a shrugging emoji.

Another said: "Dressing? Makes it so slick its dangerous!"

The creator commented: "Diluted Water based dressing doesn’t make them slick."

Tik Tok has been a resource for car owners looking to keep their rides clean.

Social media superstar Babs showed viewers how to clean cupholders with glue and contact solution.

Other videos have shown how to use toothpaste as a headlight cleaner.

Not every video is a hit - experts have warned against this shaving cream trend that has gone viral.
