I was able to see where I have sprayed! Great product overall. Make sure you wear gloves when handling this product.

I used this in a 4 gal backpack sprayer to apply a pre-emergent. 3 to 4 oz in 4 gallons provides a very distinct color difference so you don't miss anything in your lawn and you also don't over apply anywhere. Rain the next day watered it in and also started diluting the marking color.

Have been using the marker dye for several years, mostly for spot treatments. Blue weeds make it easy to see where you have sprayed.

Took about three weeks to slowly disappear off concrete. Needed water and sun to do so. I can still find some shady areas where I can find a bit of blue dye. As for the grass, it works perfectly. Just need to be careful with the overspray onto concrete. Did not stain the tank as I thought it would. Came right out when I rinsed it. Maybe just dont let it dry on the tank.

Got this to use with the Bora Care treatment of my new construction home so that I could tell where I had treated and where I had not using backpack sprayer. Product works as advertised. However, I did not really know how many ounces of turf mark to use per gallon of product. I quickly found that a little bit of this stuff goes a very long way. I used a Tyvek coverall suit and gloves and eye protection. However, I still get stuff on me no matter what. It did wear off my hands after several days. Make sure that you have a plan on how to protect anything that you don't want marked by this stuff. I recommend masking tape and newspaper. I was using a piece of cardboard held in hand to cover areas I didn't want sprayed. This looked like a good method on youtube, but I'm a messy. I had some over spray get on a porcelain coated metal tub in a bathroom. I had to use acetone and some wd40 and a lot of elbow grease to clean up the tub. But all did come off. If you got it on wood door frames etc. it's just not coming off and will have to be painted over. I used an ounce per gallon, but probably should have used an ounce per 10 gallons. Surprisingly, after triple rinsing my sprayer, I couldn't tell it had ever been in my sprayer (white plastic Roundup brand backpack). Seeing that folks are buying this primarily to use with BoraCare, It would be nice for DoMyOwn to give a recommendation as to how much Turf Mark to use per gallon of product. The instructions on Turf Mark are not that clear. Overall I dyed around 20 gallons of liquid with a third of a bottle of turf mark and it was more than adequate.

Convenience is important to us. We can purchase only in qts. Need more quantity when spraying 90 acres. Easy folks to order from and the price is right.

This product works as advertised. I use this to apply pre emergents and when I spot treat weeds in lawn. I can definetly tell where I have sprayed. I mix at of one ounce per gallon. I buy the 2.5 gallon size because of the cost per gallon savings. I recommend this product and DoMyOwn.

This is my first season using a marker dye with my herbicides. Adding a few ounces of blue marker dye to my herbicides really does help me see what sections I've sprayed or don't want to spray.

Loved using this product. Was able to cover the entire area and not worry about skip areas. When I did just went back and applied.

Not pleased with the dye. It took about 50% more than I anticipated.

You will want to be careful what you let it touch, but I was surprised that it came out of clothing with only a cold soak for a few days, and came off my hands in only a few hours. No stains on my sprayer. Must have for spraying products uniformly and efficiently, never be without it again!

I started using this indicator dye to make sure i don't miss weeds and also reduce overspray. It works perfectly and leaves a clear indication where one sprayed. I also used it to spray an entire lawn and after finishing up, I was able to see exactly where I missed. So, I won't have odd, untreated spots in the grass in years pasts. Be careful not to spill. It is extremely concentrated and will turn your skin blue/green and is very difficult to clean up. Overspray on concrete and stucco washes away with a rinse of water immediately after application, but concentrated spills will be there for a while.

Makes it easy to see where you have applied spray.

This product is very easy to use with the easy fill spout. One thing I will caution is to be careful where you are using this product I spilled some on my pavers and it takes a while to wash out. I used the application rate and was able to see where I sprayed no problem. However as the sun went down I did seem to start lose sight of where I was spraying. User error nothing wrong with the product.

You will need less that the recommended dosage to obtain the results necessary to see where you applied a product. Make sure NOT to spray the product on concrete, rocks, or foundation as the stains can only be removed by washing it off with bleach and water.

So easy to measure and use. You can see and not guess where you sprayed and where you are spraying.

I decided on Tenacity after tons of research and YouTube videos. For the price, this product should perform. I purchased and mixed Tenacity, surfactant and the blue dye with surgical precision and proper measuring. It took 8 days to notice slight whitening of some of my weeds and some grass. After 18 days I came to the realization that my common chickweed and white clover was basically immune to this stuff. I am in PA, and the temps took a dive here over the application period (30's at night; 50's during the day) so perhaps that reduced the effectiveness. My solution: at the 21-day mark I followed up with Ortho WeedClear (I REALLY wanted to avoid the box store stuff) and it seems to be working. Bottom Line: This solution is too expensive and too tedious not to have outstanding results. Results were not impressive.

As much as I was satisfied with Podium,I am dissatisfied with this product. I doubled the suggested amount to use on the second application and the result was still not very visible. It could be that my lawn is very deep green. I saw a red dye somewhere,I'm going to try it.

Didn't clog sprayer or cause any issues with staining sidewalk, but was not visible on green grass. I won't be using it in subsequent sprays, unless the grass is dormant.

Won't stain a stainless steel sprayer. Duh I guess but I was concerned. Rinsed out with soapy water.

does what needs to do, but can stain hands, concrete and clothing. I like the dispensing bottle. It will stain your pets feet even a few days after application. But does make it easy to see where you applied chemicals and where you missed.
