What product do you use, if any to keep your Weathertech or aftermarket mats black and looking new?

If you are in an area where you really need them (snow, slush, dirt, etc) then there’s not much you can do to make them look new. After all, they are designed to protect the carpeting, so something has got to give.
Regular washing with soap and water: take them out and wash them the same time you wash the truck. I recommend not using 303 or armor all, as it tends to make them slippery, but does make them look ‘black’. YMMV.
the weathertech mats I had, after a few years, also developed wear spots.

There are plenty of products that will bring WeatherTech (or any brand) liners and mats back to life even in the harshest of use.
The best I have found (even better than WeatherTech's own) is this by Chemical Guys.

Get yourself a nice course bristled brush spray it on and let it soak awhile then scrub away. They look good as new, smell like grape, and are not slippery at all when dry!
