| STEP 1 – Unpack Mats Quickly | |
| For best results, unpack and install AutoDeck Floor Mats as soon as possible after delivery. The sooner the product is removed from packaging, the sooner it will lay flat on garage floor after installation. | |
|
| STEP 2 – Prepare Garage Floor | |
| Sweep and clean garage floor. Wipe up any oil and chemicals from floor before unrolling Floor Mats. | |
 |
| STEP 3 – Unroll AutoDeck Floor Mats |
| Unroll Floor Mat onto garage floor. Edges may be butted together or overlapped (see Overlap Note below) for seamless appearance and floor protection. Initially, the AutoDeck Floor Mats will have curl marks - due to being rolled on a core or folded in a box for shipment - this is normal. |
| - Unroll option 1: For lay-flat results, unroll Floor Mats in the sunlight on a clean driveway. The warmer the conditions, the quicker the curls will straighten out and lay flat. Use a wide push broom to push air out - begin from the center and work your way out (side-to-side and length-to-length). Repeat as necessary. Place on garage floor when desired and repeat broom-out. |
| - Unroll option 2: If you wish to unroll mats directly onto the garage floor, sweep garage floor clean of debris and unroll AutoDeck Floor Mat. For best results, start unrolling process at the garage entrance; finishing at the back of the garage. (Note: In cool to cold conditions, it may take 72+ hours for most curl marks to lay flat depending on the temperature. Be sure to push out air with a broom It is OK to park your car on it during this time.) |
|
| STEP 4 – Allow Floors Mats To Relax |
| Allow mat to relax and lay flat. For custom fit, allow product to relax in place before trimming around edges and corners. (Note: If the floor mats are used under extreme temperature conditions, such as direct sunlight or unheated garages, the product may expand or contract as much as 2% after laying flat. For a custom fit, always allow product to relax before trimming around edges and corners.) |
 |
|
| STEP 5 – Trim To Fit Poles And Corners |
| Trim edges with sharp scissors or utility knife. |
 |
|
| STEP 6 – Finishing |
| Taping around edges is optional. These Floor Mats can expand or contract up to 2% with temperature changes. It is best if the mat is allowed to 'float' freely on the floor. If you choose to tape the seam between two floor mats, we recommend using indoor-outdoor carpet tape. We offer |
| Note: Due to the manufacturing process, patterns of two pieces of flooring may not match or align exactly along the seam when two mats are laid side by side. |
 |
|
| *Overlap note: |
| AutoDeck Floor Mats that are 10’ wide, has an "overlap flap" (approximately 1.5" to 2" wide)
of unpatterned material running down one side. Flooring that is 9' wide or less, has no "overlap flap.”
