How to clean Lloyd floor mats
How do you guys clean the Lloyd mats without damaging the embroidered flag emblems and the word Corvette? The premium high pile carpet in oak is still in pristine condition but the emblems have light soiling and I sure don't want to damage the threads.

The key is, like posted above, no wiping or scrubbing of the embroidery. The threads can be damaged, and once they start to go it will slowly unravel.
Use a quality carpet and upholstery cleaner. Spray liberally onto a microfiber towel and blot at the area to be cleaned. If you can avoid it don't saturate the embroidery and don't spray the cleaner directly onto it. I've had excellent success using our Hit the Spot Carpet Cleaner on the silver embroidery of my lloyds luxe mats.

After you've hit it a few times with the cleaner moistened towel, follow up with a separate towel just lightly dampened with water. Assuming its just lightly soiled that should pull up any dirt.
When vacuuming use a similar approach. Don't rake the hose end over the fibers of any embroidered parts. Just place it over and hold it there for a moment to let the vacuum pick up any loose dirt/debris.
