Capture Carpet & Rug Dry Cleaner Powder 8 lb — Dry Cleaner for Pet Stains & Odors, Fast No-Rinse Refresh

Capture Carpet & Rug Dry Cleaner is an 8 lb dry-cleaning powder that lifts soil, neutralizes odors, and refreshes carpets and rugs without water or steam.

Designed for quick spot work or whole-room maintenance, this heavy-duty dry powder absorbs dirt and grime from carpets, area rugs, upholstery and vehicle interiors. It’s formulated to be gentle on delicate fibers yet tough on pet stains and lingering smells, letting you clean high-traffic areas without waiting for drying time or renting equipment.

How does this dry powder remove stains without wetting the carpet?

Capture works by clinging to oils, soils and residues so they can be lifted away with a vacuum instead of being driven deeper by moisture. Because it doesn’t rely on shampooing or steam, there’s no prolonged dampness that can cause wicking or mildew.

• Powder granules absorb grease and trapped dirt like a sponge.
• Brushing distributes the product through fibers to loosen embedded soils.
• Vacuuming extracts powder plus dissolved grime, leaving surface dry.

Is it safe for delicate carpets and fabrics such as wool or silk?

This formula is intended to be safe on a wide variety of materials, from synthetic wall-to-wall carpet to natural-fiber rugs and upholstery. It contains no bleach or harsh solvents, reducing the risk of color loss or fiber damage when used as directed.

• Suitable for wool, blends, and many code-S labeled fabrics.
• No bleach, aggressive solvents, or abrasive ingredients.
• Patch-test recommended on fragile or vintage textiles before full application.

How do I apply Capture for best results on pet stains and odors?

For stubborn spots, pre-treating with a compatible pre-spray helps break down organic residues, then sprinkle the powder, work it in with a soft brush, and vacuum once dry. This two-step approach lifts stains and neutralizes odors without saturating the area.

• Lightly mist area with a pre-mist (sold separately) for deep stains.
• Evenly sprinkle powder, agitate gently, and allow to dwell briefly.
• Vacuum thoroughly; repeat spot treatment if necessary.

How much area does one 8 lb pail cover and how often should I use it?

An 8 lb container is sized for repeated spot cleaning and periodic maintenance of larger areas—estimated coverage is up to approximately 800 square feet depending on application thickness. Frequent light cleanings keep high-traffic routes and pet areas fresher and extend carpet life compared with infrequent deep wet cleaning.

• Typical coverage: up to about 800 sq ft for light maintenance.
• Use more product for heavily soiled or heavily trafficked zones.
• Routine touch-ups monthly or as needed for pets and spills.
