Don't they sell some kind of rubber mat for this sort of thing? I think you could cut some from the mats they use for cashiers to stand on. They would be a lot easier to clean oil off of, and easier on the knees. Brian Hendrix Miss Bailey CHB 34

Every once in awhile I get an industrial catalog of some sort. As you might suspect, there are mats made for this specific purpose, sorta. Mats for machine shops are impervious to grease and oil, but they cost a lot more than carpet remnants. For engine cleanliness, I might prefer knee pads to carpeting I can't stow elsewhere - depends on the engine room. Still think Charlie has a practical and inexpensive solution.

Garden/home/hardware centers have small closed cell foam kneeling pads, about 12 x 24 inches, designed for just this purpose, in the garden of course.
