Trailer mats

[Elanorg]

Does anyone have any suggestions on the best, easily removable mats for trailers? I have a Rice trailer with an aluminium reinforced wood floor. Is it best to have one mat cover the entire area or just 2 strips, with a gap under the partition? I ideally want something easy to remove to I can make sure the floor stays sound.

Also, would anyone advise treating the wood with anything to seal it? It has very strong deep planks but they don't look as they have been treated.

Thanks

I used to have a Bateson and when I had the floor replaced I found that the two strips of mats would not stay in place. Admittedly I have a horse who will lean on the back bar but I often arrived at places with the mats rucked up in the front of the trailer. I had to get them bolted to the floor.
