Vintage kirby shakeout bag trick. Significantly reduces dust!!

[@DoctoredGinst]

Dude, I love your RCA 25” in the background! I got a 13” for Christmas that same style about 1992. Takes me back!

Excellent info and demo! I remember reading when Kirby used KGF-40 on those old bags. It not only reduced dust emissions, but it was to stop mold or bacteria growth, also. I can't remember the exact reason why they stopped using it, but I want to say it had something to do with it health reasons; like maybe it was toxic or something. Anyway, I think it would help if people kept the bag cleaned out to also help cut down on dust emissions as well. They recommend you empty it after each use, but it won't hurt to let it go a time or two. It shouldn't go past that if you use a shake-out bag machine on a regular basis.

I use food grade mineral oil to treat wooden chopping boards, same as baby oil basically, but without the stink.
