Title: Help with Jute rug clean please
Post by: Aaron stanton on September 21, 2015, 11:52:24 am: Hi was cleaning for a client on sat and they asked me about cleaning a jute rug with a latex backing. Not having done any rug cleaning courses and being a bit unsure on method for this I told them I would get back to them regarding the clean. What would the best method for cleaning this type of rug be?

Many thanks

Aaron
