Oil-Absorbing Mats For Garage And Shop
Discovering an oil leak from your motorcycle is always disappointing, but finding an offending oil spot on your otherwise meticulous garage or shop floor—why, that’s downright depressing! But cheer up, there’s a workaround while you’re contemplating what the fix is—one of these purpose-designed oil-absorbing mats. Available in a variety of sizes, the mats can slide underneath your bike’s engine only, or else—if ordered in a large-enough size—fit under nearly your entire bike. On the most affordable scale, buy a bag of disposable absorbent pads; or go big and get a big adhesive-backed pad that securely stays put on the floor. Cleanup varies according to mat, but ranges from simply trashing it to sweeping, vacuuming, or even wet-vacuuming the mat clean. No matter which one you choose, your garage floor—and your mood in the garage—will thank you!
Adhesive-Backed Mat Stays Put
Measuring a generous 36 inches x 60 inches, this Garage Floor Mat for Motorcycles by New Pig attaches firmly to the garage floor thanks to its included adhesive backing. From there, the mat soaks up oil, water, and other fluids, while also capturing dirt and grime. Its wicking action distributes fluid drips throughout the polypropylene material, and the impermeable bottom layer keeps liquids from soaking through to the garage floor. When you need to clean up, just sweep or vacuum, or mop and wet-vacuum, with the mat left in place.
Leak-Free
A garage mat has to be leak-free, especially if it is going to reside underneath cars or motorcycles that receive regular at-home oil changes or can perhaps leak oil overtime. You don’t want the grimy oil spots staining your garage floor, do you? That’s where a large 5 x 8 foot mat like this comes in handy. If it’s too large for your floor space, simply cut it down to size. When it comes time to clean it, you can easily spray it down with a hose.
Trap Any Mess
Not too big, not too small, but just the right size, this 29-inch by 36-inch oil absorbing mat from Drymate is a great way to keep your work area clean. Backed with a slip-resistant coating, you won’t have to worry about this mat sliding out from underneath you while you’re performing any task. The mat is made of 80-percent recycled material and is can soak up anything, including brake fluid, motor oil, and gasoline. The Drymate Mat is also simple to clean. Spray it down, scrub with soap, rinse off, and hang to dry and the mat is ready for your next project.
