BEDBUG CLEANING INFORMATION

The mildew resistant BedRug foam will not absorb liquids. The engineered polypropylene fiber top surface resists stains and deterioration from most acids, chemicals, gas and oils, etc. Therefore, by following the cleaning instructions below, your BedRug will remain serviceable for as long as you own your truck.

Cleaning your BedRug is easy:

1. A vacuum, broom, brush or compressed air can be used to remove dirt, grime, sand, mulch etc. Due to the fact that water will not harm the BedRug, pressure washing is also an effective way to clean a soiled BedRug.

2. Although most acids will not harm the BedRug, baking soda should be applied immediately to neutralize the acid to ensure the safety of the paint on the truck.

3. To clean tougher jobs such as gasoline, oil, chemicals, acid spills or leaks from your BedRug use detergent soap with degreaser and water, then rinse thoroughly. This detergent soap is used in most car wash locations with pressure washing equipment. The BedRug polypropylene closed-cell foam will not absorb water and the polypropylene fiber dries in minutes.

If you have additional questions, call BedRug, Inc. customer service at 800-462-8435.

Retain this cleaning information with your vehicle owner's manual for future reference.
