Ever use Iron-X? It removes surface rust dots on wheels, car paint. STINKY. I put it in three industrial zip lock bags and it still smells up the garage from time to time. 1-2 days to lose the smell is impressive though.

Oh yeah I do - love carpro products.

There is a lemon scent one, but I haven't used it so don't know how well it works to mask the smell. If you haven't tried them, you need to sample Hydro2 (use the pre-mix or dilute with distilled water) and Elixir. They are the way to go for coating maintenance.

Well look at that cute little guy, 50ml bottle! https://www.carpro-us.com/more-categories/samples/carpro-ironx-lemon-scent-sample-50ml/
I'll give that a whirl if I ever run out of my current iron-x. TLF is useful for things other than lawncare. :nod: :thumbup:

Too funny. I use a Nanolex wheel cleaner and Iron remover and that stuff stinks too…. Every time I use it my wife complains that the garage smells for days.

Turf is looking amazing. Well done

Okay, one more non lawn comment. First time I used Iron-x I was at a pay and spray. Totally hosed the entire car off afterwards. Still smelled for weeks.

@JerseyGreens how does your bluebank compare to the neighbor's for dark green and Greenup?

Is there a car detailing sub? I know @Ware has the OG setup at his new house. I did my own wash bay setup. Us car nerds need to stick together once the lawns go dormant...we will have a reason to stay in touch.

@steffen707 - google Merlin's magic elixer carpro, I still make my own elixir! 😀

I think most of it is in this thread. There probably isn't enough to start a new subforum.

 

[JerseyGreens]

Makes sense @Ware - thanks.

@steffen707 - it's not even fair comparing my lawn to the neighbors. Apples and oranges. I try to help the guy out but he's disinterested.

 

[JerseyGreens]

The backbreaking work with the sand was well worth it!

 

[steffen707]

Worth it if you want really beautiful, flat lawns....... :thumbup:

 

[shadowlawnjutsu]

That's a fake grass!

 

[Jeff_MI84]

That looks so nice. Do you ever catch anybody walking by and touching the grass?

 

[JerseyGreens]

Thanks gang!

Haven't caught a stranger touching but all of my family members and friends do when they come over.

They take their shoes off and want to feel it barefoot.

Oooh, I've never walked on a fairway barefoot.

If you ever find yourself in Jersey then we can make that happen!

Definitely worth it! This yard is flat AF.

Some other things you can do barefoot:
- reel mow (probably not the smartest thing to do, but satisfying)
- spread sand (feels like walking on a beach at the end, only softer)

The only thing I will not try is spraying barefoot!

 

[JerseyGreens]

😆 - true that @bf7!

 

[JerseyGreens]

Back at it!

My wife just said, "if you keep F'ing playing with sand then you might as well just buy us a beach house!"

Said like a true Jersey Girl.

 

[ericgautier]

Back at it!

You are a mad man! :lol:

 

[bernstem]

Looking good - like a grass table.

 

[JerseyGreens]

Thank you @bernstem - can't wait to get some stripes down on this!!

I've been single cutting back and forth on each stripe (erasing them) to promote vertical growth.

 

[JerseyGreens]

Back at it!

You are a mad man! :lol:

Pretty much! I absolutely cannot have a pile of sand sitting in my driveway over winter. I'd get more heat from the misses on that front!
