Capture 3000004612 Carpet & Rug Dry Cleaner

Easy to use & does a great job

This stuff is amazing. I used a similar product years ago and was looking for it again. I found this and it is perfect. I know that I can count on it to get my dogs pumpkin / peanut butter treat stains up.

I wanted to clean my 10 yr old wool area rug, but didn't want to ruin it in the process. After a bit of research, I settled on this product. I followed the advice of other reviewers who suggested using a sifter to distribute the product onto the rug and a horse hair brush to work the product into the rug. Very good advice. The product was very chunky. The manufacturer should modify the lid into a shaker style for ease of use. The brush that came with the product was useless. It was too hard and it was misshapened by the shrink wrap. I used the entire 1lb container to clean my 6ft round rug. After I brushed the product into the rug, I let it sit for over an hour. I vacuumed the rug multiple times to make sure I got all of the product out of the rug. I don't see much of difference between the Before & After pictures. I am pleased that it didn't damage the rug. I do feel like my rug is cleaner and I would consider using this product again. All in all, it worked okay.

After multiple purchases with positive results, for some reason I added the pre-spray. This may or may not have contributed to the disappointing results, but what can I say? This time the results on this expensive, dense pile carpet were less than stellar. Maybe the spray made it stick. The stuff added a full residue look. Maybe the spray did nothing. Maybe my fault for not using it from the start. Whatever, at first Capture was amazing. The carpet was clean, revived, and inmates. After 3 or 4 uses, I think the powder has accumulated in the deep pile and now attracts even more dirt and just looks sad. Pets and anyone who stretches out on the carpet end up develop itchy spots Its’s all just a guess but ultimately it ends with cme buying more. Be patient. It’s only a rug.

This is a great product for removing stains on carpet. The best for boucle fabric. My little dog came in from a rainy mess and jumped on my new white fabric ottoman. I panicked and rubbed the black dirt in even more. A friend was here and told me about this product that she uses. Sure enough, the stains disappeared after using only once. What a relief!
