LawnStar Grass Paint, 32 fl. oz. - Makes Grass Green Again - The Non-Toxic Solution for Water Restrictions & Drought - Skyrocket Your Curb Appeal Today! (Covers 500-1,000 sq. ft.)

I do a lot of spot spraying in our yards using herbicides, and I've found that the as-purchased spray wands that come with the common one gallon herbicide containers quickly clog, and the spray pattern quickly deteriorates as the typical AA Alkaline batteries lose charge. My current approach, which I've been successfully using for over a year, is based on adapting a Li-ion battery-powered spray wand (from Tovia on Amazon) for use with the standard 1 gallon insecticide/herbicide containers with 38-400 neck finish (cap thread). By having a dedicated container for each chemical, I avoid the problem of cleaning the spray container at the end of each job. To prevent clogging, I use a custom-built large-area screen filter on the wand-tube's inlet that is positioned at the bottom of the 1-gal container and use a custom-built funnel with integral 40-mesh strainer when filling the 1-gal container (see photos). This December I decided to green up my 700 ft2 dormant-looking lawn for the holiday season using a quart of the Lawn Star Grass Paint Concentrate (diluted 1 cup per gallon of water) with my electric-wand sprayer setup. For my dedicated green-spray container I purchased from Amazon a Mountain West's 1 Gallon HDPE f-style container with 38-400 neck finish and filled it with water and a cup of Lawn Star grass paint. As others have noted, it's a good thing I used my filter funnel, as the paint concentrate was quite liquid (no gel as some others have noted), but was filled with a lot of what looked like small dried paint shards that would quickly plug a sprayer (see photo). With my filter and strainer precautions, I had no plugging issues at all in my application. The battery-powered spray wand with Li-ion rechargeable battery worked great to apply the grass paint...a vast improvement over the everyday spray wands and pump-up sprayers. Since my lawn is surrounded by cement patio on two sides, I considered various alternatives to keeping the paint off the patio. In the end, I found that the spay wand was quite easy to control with only inches of overspray, so I wet just a foot-wide boarder of the patio with a sprinkler can to prevent any small overshoots from drying, and at the same time keeping the added water off the lawn. Then, I quickly washed any overspray incidents away with the sprinkler-can as soon as they occurred (only a few, and typically only a inch or so wide). I was nervous about the amount of paint to use for my pretty dormant-looking lawn, so I started by scalping it using my mower's lowest setting and then raked the driest areas pretty thoroughly to remove excess thatch. When I started applying, I though I was going to need more than four cups of concentrate for my lawn, but after adjusting the wand for the best spray pattern, I ended up using just 2 1/2 cups of concentrate...and the lawn looks great with great grass-looking color (see photo). At the end of spraying, I quickly emersed the spray-wand inlet into a 1 gallon tank of wash water and ran the sprayer for a few minutes to thoroughly wash it out. What I found is that the spray and concentrate dry almost immediately and stick tenaciously, so any cleanup of preparation aids (cups, funnels, preparation surfaces, etc) needs to occur immediately! I wore old painting clothes and covered pre surfaces with plastic...which worked well. In the end, a great looking lawn for Christmas and no paint spills...highly recommended.

Added to pump sprayer according to directions . Worked perfectly for brown spots on my landscaping trees. Has rained since application and color still vibrant. Easy and quick fix to make your landscaping look beautiful again.

Awesome product. Followed advice of another reviewer and bought 2 bottles when I "thought" 1 would do the job. Real glad I did. It took the 2 to do my 1000 square ft. lawn. One thing to know, the lawn will no be PERFECT as I thought it would. The yellow areas of lawn will still not be the deep green as the areas that were still green and I think all our lawns are patchy. I would guess another bottle could be used to go over those lighter areas to make them greener. Another thing I would do is cut it shorter than I did this time. Cut it as short as possible. We're told to leave our lawns longer when water is scarce so the sun can't penetrate to the roots. Well when the lawn is yellow I'd guess that's already happened. Only reason I'd do this is to eliminate the high and low look from previously yellow and green areas. Like I said it doesn't look perfect but from my neighbors perspective it looks GREAT. Had an audience while doing it and visits with questions afterwards. Overall I'm happy with the product and their customer service. They contact you to see how things went and if there were any problems. If there were any they'll do whatever they can to help. I will be buying this lawn paint next year. I suggest anyone with yellow lawns do the same. You won't be sorry. Only down side is the coverage like I spoke about. Larger bottles should be offered at a lower price because you WILL need at least double or more of the product than you anticipate for good coverage.

I just got my @ss handed to me on this homeowner project. I thought this is an easy task for the front yard for the dead winter yellow grass. Absolutely not. I mixed the recommended amount of paint and water. I go outside to start spraying a sample section and then start the front yard and I’m clogged. I have used many liquids in my backpack battery operated sprayer and have never been clogged! I take apart inside and try to flush it out. I dump some of the solution in a bowl and try to add more water and stir it the best I can. Back outside and clogged again. Bring it in again and run hot water through the sprayer. Got green paint everywhere. Had to clean up every splatter the instant it landed. The sink started leaking green paint water and I’ve never had a leak. So cleaned that up. I ended up outside and dumped half of the solution in the yard. Poured hot water in and tried again now that I’m diluted maybe 75% beyond what was already recommended and diluted… still nothing comes out for more than 15 seconds before being clogged again. I’m sweating and the sun starts to set. So I’ve sprayed five feet maybe in total. The entirety of the yard is untouched. I’m physically sore and wasted half of a weekend day. The yard still looks dead. By the time I water this down 95% beyond recommended dilution to maybe get it through the sprayer will it even stain the yard? Never trying this again. Leaving nature as it was designed and going ti clean my house or do anything but ever spray my yard green for winter again.

Great product, surprised on how well it worked. Will be buying again for my back yard.
