What is the difference between the Ribbed mat and/or the Coin and Diamond pattern mats?
The ribbed mat is mainly used in the northern states where ice and snow build up on your vehicle is an issue, as the snow and ice melts, the ribs help to contain and channel the debris and moisture toward the garage door, as long as there is sufficient slope to the structure/slab to allow this. The ribbed mat is an excellent option for this scenario; however it can be a lot harder to keep clean during the summer months; i.e. mopping, sweeping, squeegee, etc… As we have found the Coin and Diamond mat to be most functional in conditions where water is not such an issue and ease of cleaning is desired.
