I am looking for something that is like sweet air to use in my kirby 518.

Any ideas where I can get an actual can of it, or other scents that work?



What scent was the sweet air?
 
I have one of the older Sweet-Aires, Cedar Pine scent.

Newer Kirby odorific II should work, it comes in Cinnamon (strongest and best scent IMO), Vanilla (second best), and this industrial flower crap (yuck).

Sorry, the Sweet-Aire is not for sale.

The Odorific II is available on eBay, and any local shop that specializes in Kirby's. I got mine from my friend at the Kirby service center.
 
history?

I will go and look for some. Thanks!


Is the plastic bottle before they used metal oil cans?
Yours looks mint!
 
My bottle is actually glass, it has a date on the bottom of 1945 (possibly 46), though I think it was made a bit later. They went from glass, litho-tin, and back to glass. It's also unused, maybe only used once or twice, but I doubt it. The cap feels like ceramic, not like plastic. It makes a nice little "ping-ping" sound if you tap it with a small little screwdriver head.

The Odorific II is in a very tiny little glass bottle, but it is very potent and lasts a long time. You can take a cotton ball (or I take one of my mom's makeup pads, works a bit better), put a few drops on, and put it between the disposable bag and the outer bag, I find that if you place it in one of the top corners, you can smell the scent much better since more air escapes from there.

I think my two bottles were less then $5.

It should.

(and excuse the fur covered wool rug, I vacuum the rugs and 2 hours later they're covered with fur again...)lol.

you have no idea!

I have a chocolate lab, and she sheds so much. My vacuums cant take it!

The bagless vacs are covered in hair, it sticks to the plastic!
