    I have rubber floor mats in my truck. In general it is not a good idea to use any sort of dressing on any surface that the driver's feet will touch. You don't want to risk learning the hard way if it makes it too slippery, because by that time it will be too late. Same reasoning as why it isn't a good idea to dress the peddles of a customer's car.

    With a floor mat under the drivers feet, sometimes its just better to wash them and leave them matte looking. I've learned from experience and fortunately I got lucky before anything bad happened.

    I once put swirls in my paint just to see what it looked like.
    I don't always detail cars, but when I do, I prefer Meguiar's.
    Remove swirls my friends.

      That's what I like about rubber mats. The extra M40 scent is nice.
      The carpet mats look better but rubber's more practical. I'd go with some plain all weather mats.

        If you really want to make a fashion statement you could run with one of each at the same time- switching it up every other day to keep your passengers guessing

          I like the carpet ones, nice and clean looking with only the bow tie.

            I had the rubber mats that you have there in my old Silverado. I liked them. I really like those carpeted mats though.

              I use carpet mats in the summer and rubber ones in the winter. This system works out pretty good. Keeping the carpet ones in good condition is not that difficult.

                Buy both. One set for winter, one for summer. If you can't buy both, I always leaned to carpeted mats.
