The powder is a non-caustic concentrate for carpet and upholstery extraction in Kiam Aquarius, Numatic, Karcher, Prochem and Rug Doctor machines. Do not use it in the Aquarius Hot 1400 or Hot 2800. The photos include a close look at the steel bail handle with its black grip, and the black 10kg tub stood behind the smaller white 5kg one for scale.

  • Domestic carpets
  • Domestic upholstery
