cleaning TH garage?

This is our first experience with a TH.We always used the LQ horse trailer which is all aluminum.I could hot water power wash that to get mud and trail dirt out but with this thing I'm afraid I would blow the wallpaper off the luan.If I squirt or PW the rubber floor and ramp, whats to keep water from soaking under the rubber and laying on the plywood,or whatever its made out of and starting a rot party? How does anyone else do it,or does it just stay dirty?

I think most people just do a good sweep out. It is not going to look like a new rubber floor. Just sweep out all the dirt and sand and your good to go.

I use a leaf blower to blow the whole garage out. Gets the dirt out of the recessed tie downs and is quick and painless. If it's really bad with muddy tire tracks, I'll run a damp mop over the floor and blow it out again.

We sweep and wet mop. The floor still looks new after a season and a half.

We use a dedicated tarp on floor for loading muddy stuff. Then pull it out and let it dry and shake it off. Then hit it with a mop ever so often.
