 Ultimate Protection

Floor Liners? Floor Mats? I know, I know, you say what the heck is the difference between a liner and a mat.

Well, not a whole lot as far as function goes. Both are designed to prevent water, dirt and stains from destroying your in car experience. They just have some differences in form. The car or truck floor mat is designed to cover the area where your feet usually reside while you're driving the vehicle. A car or truck floor liner typically extends that coverage to the entire floor pan, including the areas behind the accelerator, brake and clutch pedals, and adds coverage on both sides of the floor pan. The car floor mat is kind of like a plate, while a floor liner is more like a bowl. So, do you have an attached garage at home and park in a parking garage at work? Are you meticulously clean and avoid mud, water and gunk during your daily activities? If you answer "Yes" to these questions you should check out our info page on car floor mats.


But, if you walk through mud, snow, gunk and rain to get to your car, a floor liner may be just what you need. It's always good to keep all the stuff you get on your shoes or boots from taking up residence on your cars floor. Working and playing outdoors, kids, and using your passenger side floor area as a temporary garbage can are some of the reasons floor liners exist.  A floor liner is usually rigid, made of a rubber-like thermoplastic, has raised edges to trap liquids and usually has a surface adorned with ridges and valleys that let you scrape your boots clean and trap water at the same time. The floor liner for your car or truck is kinda like a stiff rubber car mat with a big lip all the way around that covers almost the entire floor of your vehicle. Okay, enough of this. Let do a quick review of some of the more popular car floor liners in the marketplace today.

General Floor Liner Info

Husky Liner Floor Liner Surface Texture helps trap dirt and liquids and give you good traction.
Lund (Nifty) Catch-All Surface Texture for a good non-slip experience.

Liners are commonly used in SUV’s, pickups and vans especially if you work, play or live in an extremely dirty/wet environment. They’re molded from rubber-like thermoplastics into shallow swimming pools that precisely line the floor pan of your vehicle, protecting the carpet from invasion by water, dirt and gunk. The best liners are impervious to gas, oil and battery acid in addition to liquid and gunk. To prevent water, mud and gunk that's trapped on top of your floor liner from getting onto your boots or high heels try out a universal absorbent car floor mat protector.

Carpet fasteners, nibs or ridged bottoms are used to prevent the liner from slipping. And to keep you from slipping, the liners are textured on top! You hose these babies off to clean them. Just one warning before you go check out and buy floor liners from Husky Liners , Lund, WeatherTech, Michelin or anyone else: Don’t install any of these liners on top of existing floor mats or on top of vinyl floors. Install them on top of your vehicles OEM carpeting. That’s the way they are designed to work! So have fun, but if you decide a liner is too outdoorsy or your luxury vehicle needs a more sophisticated floor protective device, then go back and check out a custom car mat.
