Product details
This is Kirby's carpet shampoo in the original unscented formula, sold in a 32 oz bottle, part 252703S. Kirby's own catalogue lists this number as the 32 oz unscented option of Kirby Carpet Shampoo.
It runs through a Kirby carpet shampoo system's own solution tank and applicator rather than being poured straight onto carpet, and Kirby's guidance is to run Kirby-branded shampoo in a Kirby shampoo system rather than a substitute. The unscented version is the one to reach for in a household with fragrance sensitivities, or where a scented product would linger in soft furnishings afterward.
Kirby's shampoo works as a dry foam rather than by soaking the carpet, which is what keeps the backing from taking on excess water and lets the carpet dry faster afterward. The formula also carries an encapsulating polymer: rather than leaving a sticky film, it surrounds the loosened dirt and dries to a crystal that vacuums straight back out, which is why a properly shampooed carpet should not start attracting soil again within days.
Follow the dilution ratio printed on the bottle rather than guessing, since this is sold as a concentrate and using it at full strength wastes product and leaves residue behind. Rinse the tank and applicator after use so dried shampoo does not clog the lines the next time the machine is filled.
