This polyurethane wing fuel mat can be easily cleaned with soap and water. Avoid spraying product with silicone or wd-40 type products because this material will cause dust and dirt to attach to pad possibly scratching wing surface. Color fading will not affect the integrity of the polyurethane material. Color options available at point of purchase. |

Works as expected. I considered using a rag to place my fuel cap on instead of laying it on the wing (to keep from scratching the paint). Reconsidered once I thought about the possibility of static electricity from the rag next to an open fuel tank. Decided to use something that was made out of material that prevents it. A little pricey but worth it overall.
PDI-119 Red Fuel Mat
We really like this product! Its very thick and stiff, and takes a little getting used to. But, its extremely durable. Our problem before was that thin mats were getting ripped and torn too easily. That problem is now completely eliminated with this mat.
For the price it's a great deal ...wow paying $90 for all these years I can't believe it's made in the USA. Great deal
Has extra bulky border padding. Doesnt lie flat enough to provide enough friction to maintain position and has to be held in place during use. May have to find another alternative. This is better suited as a kneeler to soften concrete floors and a common rubber mat from Home Depot or Lowes at 1/10th price can be modified to suit purpose
Terrible product. The mats only lasted several weeks. I have ordered wing mats from other location, and they have lasted for years. I will never order this product again.
PDI-119 Red Fuel Mat
The mat is very thick, stiff and heavy. I will be returning it.
This stiff mat slides right off the wing of my Cessna 206. Unusable & returned.
Mat is not what I expected. Material is not flexible and does not cover the leading edge of wing on my C172. That area is where the fuel hose usually rubs the wing while fueling. I would not recommended this fuel mat for any high wing Cessna aircraft.
This mat slides off the wing surface, Im returning the product.
Easily slides off wing. While product has some flexibility, it is made from harder material. Not soft at all. I would rate this as a low quality product. In my view, it is not very suitable as a wing fuel mat.
