How do I remove dried mud/chalk completely from rubber floor mats?
chevrolet_camaro_owner asked:
The chalk in the mud leaves big white marks on the mats, and it’s very hard to get rid of them. I have tried all kinds of cleaning products, plus leaving the mats in warm water for several hours and then scrubbing them. But every time they dry I can see some of the chalk is still there. Any suggestions?
They’re washed once a week, so it’s not because the mud is very old or anything.

How can I remove human hair from mats & carpets without physically touching the hair?
Sarah L asked:
I have 3 daughters with long hair and they all brush their hair and the hair comes out onto the floor, mainly onto mats & the carpets. I do vaccum it off but half the time I have to physically remove it. Such a fustrating job. No matter how many times I tell the girls not to drop it on the floor it still appears and is driving me crazy. Now I know why I keep my hair short. Also I find hair in the shower plughole and the basin the sink. They won’t touch it at all and it is up to me to clean it up. Just such an annoying habit that it really gets up my goat. Other than giving them a number 1 haircut I can’t see any other solution. As per usual it is left up to Mum to cleanup. (Interesting to see how they get on when they go flatting). Probably think the phantom cleaner will clean up after them.
