Just a small tip, Allen... it’s always a good practice (if you mix chemicals with water) to add the chemical to the water and not the other way around. For instance - bleach and water. This prevents the chemical from splashing back up on you, or in your face. I just wanted to share that with you (and anyone else here, that’s interested), for safety.

[@handymanjourney]

Great tip! Very important!

[@alchemypoolalchemypool]

As a chemist, you are 100% accurate! One can never be too safe around any chemicals.

[@farmhand3724]

Excellent job! I can't ignore the irony that we are forced to resort to this instead of watering the lawn like the good ole days. I'm going to show this to my neighbors. Thanks for the vid. It was very unique.

[@handymanjourney]

Hey thanks Chris! I appreciate the comment!

[@aliveandwell2078]

My guess is that the grass went dormant. Dormant grass will not turn green regardless of how much you water

[@tonycatalano4338]

I had never even heard of this stuff until you posted, I shared with my realtor wife as this is a great spruce up for a listing.

[@handymanjourney]

Awesome! That's exactly why we did it! Because we are selling our house!

[@stich1960]

Seems like deceptive sales techniques to me, maybe its diferant in cali with water shortages but if I found out somebody did this rather than actually repairing the yard of a house I was buying I would be pissed.

[@jimmorrison6146]

I like it! Now for my area, if we only had some way of painting the cloudy sky blue.

[@handymanjourney]

Haha for sure!! Thanks for the comment!!

[@Sjaubi-qf6wd]

After it dried does it stain the bottom of your foot wear even after rain . Does the color run after rain or stain concrete after rain?

[@SJtoobsox]

Love the neighbor shuffling over! Going to have to try this cuz here in San Jose, they have turned off the water :)

[@ED-ew7vy]

I’ve used this stuff for 3 years now. It does work, I go a little heavier on the mixture and the KEY (from which he found out) is a good sprayer. Spend the extra couple bucks on a nice sprayer and you’ll cut your time in half.

[@littlebitofhope1489]

How long does it last?

[@williamm4460]

Enjoying the frequent uploads, as of late. Good work!

[@handymanjourney]

Hey thanks William! I appreciate it and I will keep them coming!

[@normhodgkinson6965]

Allen, i didn't know there was a grass paint, but like paint, i would put on a second coat.

[@handymanjourney]

That would probably be a good idea! Thanks!!

[@Suckerpunchsports]

Or just spray enough the 1st time?

[@1stFlyingeagle]

I think it looks great. Don't forget they use to sell spray you would apply to your head if your crop was getting thin. It would thicken up the fine hairs and color it to your choice of colors.

[@handymanjourney]

Hahaha! I am sure this stuff would work if your into green hair! 😂

[@leonastanford2803]

I really appreciate how informative and detailed your video. Thanks

[@handymanjourney]

Thank you!

[@donaldchristen6862]

Ok but are u cutting the grass weekly or by weekly after applying this an does this stuff help the lawn in anyway.

[@deg453]

I use a large long handled paint shield to protect sidewalks and any concrete edges

[@handymanjourney]

Awesome

[@robinlynngillis]

Thanks for the video! I think it looks great and definitely adds some quick curb appeal. Nice work!

[@handymanjourney]

Hey thanks robin! I appreciate it!

[@wollins2]

Hi Allen, just stumbled upon this cool vid. Can you give me a long term update ... how long did it last ... looking for a "good" lawn paint and this one has just "average" reviews so just wondering?

[@handymanjourney]

It doesn't last very long. We did this in order to sell our house and then it pretty much wears off with the first rain

[@xs8372]

Just a tip. I don’t know about that particular “cheap” sprayer but most of them have a really small filter at the end of the hose that u can remove. I saw in another video of a guy painting his lawn and he did just that when it kept getting clogged

[@handymanjourney]

Awesome! Thanks for sharing

[@junebickerstaff]

Huge difference love it

[@handymanjourney]

Awesome man! Thanks so much for your comment!

[@Bagel-lt2xh]

Try a dual fan tip nozzle and probably a little backpack sprayer. You'll Thank yourself haha

[@handymanjourney]

Awesome! Thanks

[@neilthorley359]

Nice tutorial mukka need to do mine mate

[@joshh6560]

Great video, and amazing idea. About how would you charge for the front of that yard size? I'm from SC, I think I could add that to my services

[@brianjensen09]

Did you addi t

[@Louielimardo2011]

Not sure how many jobs you this with, but maybe get a used graco sprayer with a extension and spray tip. But good video

[@FrawwfMedina]

Are you had to get rid of the filter on the sprayer it’s right on the hose inside you take it out

[@lilmamma807]

Does it transfer when wet? As in if I walk on it wet will it get on my shoes?

[@handymanjourney]

Yes you will

[@lilmamma807]

@@handymanjourney good to know thank you.

[@marcusreeves2883]

How many times did you have to refill your sprayer?

[@likearockcm]

Kinda on the fence with this.I suppose if you can't keep your yard watered or reseed due to money ,then it's your only option. Interesting job,Lee!

[@handymanjourney]

Thanks man! Yes we did this on our house because we are selling our house

[@tibbytx1]

How much did you use for the front and back?

[@napleshomeimprovementsllc5944]

Gotta have that good sprayer, I gotta get me one

[@handymanjourney]

Most definitely!!

[@jhonphil2177]

will that work in winter?

[@Adi-S]

I have thrown out two sprayer because i got so p..t off. I don't know why it is clogging up sprayers, it seem to be a clean fluid.

[@mattandjamieosborn8708]

Does this now become a dedicated lawn paint sprayer? Or is it still reusable after?

[@shineranda29er]

triple flush the tank it’ll rinse fine

[@adriansantiago4058]

Nice Job!

[@handymanjourney]

Hey thanks Adrian!!

[@FrawwfMedina]

Wow love it

[@scottr8588]

How much did you charge for this service? Good Video and idea.

[@handymanjourney]

Thanks man! I appreciate it! I actually did this job on my own home because we are getting ready to sell it

[@Dro_-ip5ye]

Dam and I brought the same sprayer lol will get a better one before doing this today.

[@Jeff-xy7fv]

Does this come in blue? I've always wanted true blue grass on my lawn! Bluegrass music rules!! :)

[@handymanjourney]

Hahaha! Love it! 😅😂🤣

[@bowhunting1013]

Good job!!

[@handymanjourney]

Hey thanks Steve!

[@dustintunis9347]

Are they having an outdoor event of some sort? Personally I just don't care if my grass is brown, it's not worth wasting water or money to fight the weather, but for a special event I would understand.

[@handymanjourney]

I totally agree! I have had dead lawn forever, It doesn't bother me but I did this because we are selling

[@dustintunis9347]

@@handymanjourney - Fair enough, curb appeal is important when selling a house. Did you say that it's your house in the video? If so I missed it... Not that it really matters.

[@handymanjourney]

I don't think I said so in the video but yes it is mine

[@OlivertheKraken]

I just got a hefty bill from my HOA for having a small patch of dormant grass. I am hoping this will save me from further harassment.

[@westkyhomeimprovement3722]

Why not use an airless paint sprayer and be done in a few hours?

[@earlybro19]

How did you even find this product to offer it the home owner lol. Awesome product

[@handymanjourney]

Haha, it was real popular a few years back when California was in a drought. I did this on my own home because we are selling it

[@earlybro19]

Honest Lee Handyman lol so cool. Didn’t know it even existed.

[@handymanjourney]

Ya, pretty cool!

[@blackwaxfilms]

First time using grass paint. I like it so far but I really feel like it's a $10 bottle of acrylic paint that has been marked up 3x.

[@handymanjourney]

Pretty much!

[@christanzley8041]

How many bottles did u use for this project?

[@christanzley8041]

P.s it looks amazing!

[@adamstv4025]

Does this stain the soil?

[@handymanjourney]

No it doesn't

[@adamstv4025]

@@handymanjourney thanks man

[@darktoadone5068]

That would probably cost me a fortune, I have an acre and also it would take me forever I bet.

[@handymanjourney]

For sure! I would use a tow behind sprayer

[@pegsggpg]

I have dogs, is it safe for pets?

[@pinnacleservices6671]

What was the homeowner trying to accomplish? We’re they selling the home?

[@handymanjourney]

Yes selling the home

[@Dominator701]

Good way to get pesky neighbors to pipe down if they complaining.

[@handymanjourney]

Haha for sure!

[@job.herrera]

Can I ask how much did you charge for this job? Thanks!

[@AnonymousAnonymous-pl6lw]

I ordered the exact brand (from your attached link) and followed your exact instructions (1 gallon of water 1st then add 12oz of paint). The paint is extremely light in color so you can recognize differences. I then emptied it and added the paint first then a smaller amount of water and its more green. I'm sad that I've wasted almost 1/2 of it following your instructions.

[@handymanjourney]

Sorry it didn't work for you but glad you got it!

[@josephmiratsky3195]

DOES PAINTING MY BERMUDA HERE IN PHOENIX HOLD UP TO THE 100+ TEMPS?

[@strorandompage]

Next time take filter off all sprayer help not clog

[@garyoconnordbaairrepair7775]

Well. California is known as the Golden State.

[@handymanjourney]

Haha! For sure!

[@robertshawver1707]

your painting dead grass for money.... great contribution to society.

[@handymanjourney]

Haha! This was on my own house as we are selling.

[@tsubasarides4650]

does it come off on shoes, clothes etc

[@Travisimoo]

What a shame. Teach 'em how to fix their grass :(

[@robertshawver1707]

waste of time.......why not just grow grass?

[@handymanjourney]

It was a quick fix because we are selling

[@jeffreyanderson1851]

Paint can be cheaper than water. We will inevitably experience water shortages worldwide.

[@VampireOnline]

This has to be the dumbest thing anyone can do on top of paying someone to do it these people may need some mental evaluation...

[@handymanjourney]

Hahaha! Thanks for your comment

[@erikcontreras7030]

You're a moran, have you ever heard of overseeding a lawn? This is actually a good alternative, it saves so much money on water.

[@tomh3652]

Easier to just water it and cheaper.

[@robbiejeffrey4618]

I'm going to tease ya a bit, just because amazon says it's good well then spray the heck out of it. Spraying paint on grass to make it look green again is like watching someone use a household vacuum there lawn. Are you desperate for video likes that you down grade yourself to foolish lawn paint videos. Don't cheapen your self.

[@handymanjourney]

Hahaha! I literally did this on my own lawn so I made a video about it.
