    original rubber mats in 1960

    Can anyone tell me how to preserve the rubber mats in my car. They are original and starting to get hard. Thank you.

    For rubber and vinyl plastic pieces that are drying out, losing their internal plasticizers, and becoming brittle try periodic rejuvenation of the original material by spritzing on and gently rubbing in WD-40. The active ingredient (silicone) helps to penetrate and fill surface pours and periodic treatments will help lengthen the material's remaining life.
