Easy Carpet Cleaning Discovery Hailed What is said to be the easiest and "cleaningest" rug cleaner, known as Blue Lustre, is available after years of research. Blue Lustre leaves no foreign residue to cause rapid reselling.

The pile is left open and fluffy as the colors spring out like magic. So easy to apply with a long handle brush (like playing shuffleboard) and is safe for all types of carpets. Use Blue Lustre to clean the entire car-pet or remove spots and traffic lanes. It's economical as gallon of concentrate cleans three 9 12 rugs. J.
