Water spots are caused by minerals in the water not by not getting it cleaned. But seriously water spots on a hurculiner?? What do you do about the dust with the top down??

i just use some multi-purpose cleaner (orange clean, fantastic, etc.) and a coarse brush to clean mine. water spots? i dunno i only clean mine when the mud inside builds up so much that you cant even tell i have herculiner.

I dont worry about it too much. Like it was stated earlier i will just rinse it out when it gets too bad. That was pretty much the whole purpose of doing it. I have always wondered what the people that have used it on their grill and other front end parts would think of it after it gets dirty and is a PITA to clean. Mine has always had a slight brownish tint to it since the first time it got dirty.

I don't even use soap when I clean the inside. just get a small scrub brush and go at it. You might need a tooth brush for the hard to reach areas. ohh and don't be afraid to bring the hose with you when you scrub.

Use armoural or a tire shiner. Be sure to NOT drive for a day or two or NOT do the floor boards where your shoes set otherwise it is slick. Could probably just wipe it a few times after applying and be fine. Worked great on my YJ

i put herculiner in the floor of my yj about 2 weeks ago and the exhaust runs right under the passenger side floorboard and when it gets hot the stuff melts and turns into sticky goo. today i put a heatshield from my truck under there so hopefully that will help

Cleaning Herculiner

I'm not sure how it got clean but I told my wife to do it and when I came back it was good as new. I think she likes the Jeep more than me sometimes.
