Yes I did. This sprayer comes with a little funnel cup to measure viscosity, I just added water until it was the right consistency based on the manual. Not sure exactly how much I ended up adding.

Hi! I'd be happy to discuss partnering. Can you send me an email at channel.trydiy@gmail.com?

Thanks for the comment I'm glad to hear it! Good luck!

I just used Kilz primer, then used Benjamin Moore Advance cabinet paint for top coat. Hope this helps!

@@i_try_diythanks for the info what kilz product was it ? I just bought the same sprayer and I love the results you achieved.

@lasherramientasdechuy I used Kilz 2 all-purpose primer

Thank you! I just screwed little cup hooks into the bottom of the cabinets and used those to hang them with hangers, then remove when done and you'll never see the little hole

It is oil based 👍

I have one and I agree it is very convenient!

@@i_try_diy Exactly! So, are you interested in trying out our controller? We can offer you a free sample. Compared to other brands on the market, we’ve added many unique features that will make your watering experience more enjoyable.

@Kathy0118 sure! What's the brand?

Thanks for sharing - you're very welcome! So glad to hear you got a good result!

@@i_try_diy Thank you for all the hard work and detailed video!! Really helps beginners like me! I have shared this video to some of my neighbors!! There is a grub issue spreading in my area. Do you recommend grub killer over the newly sprouted grasslings? Or should I wait until spring? What is your recommendation?

@s.shankarsateesh7235 I would recommend waiting until your new grass is a bit more established. Probably best to wait until it's growing strong in springtime

@@i_try_diy thank you!! Will wait!!

I always neglect to put on a mask for these tasks...tsk tsk tsk

It's held up well. Here's a quick update video I made recently. Hope this helps! m.ruclips.net/video/05B_spCNgv0/видео.html

I appreciate it! I'm in Utah county

How long ago did you seed? Was it this season or last? Mine definitely thickened up even more the following year. But I'd also recommend overseeding at about half the rate you initially seeded. That can work wonders for getting it thicker! Some selective herbicide like a 24D can also really help with weed control

Thanks for the comment! I believe I had it on 5 for the fertilizer, and 4 when spreading seed. I didn't necessarily spread the seed in multiple directions, just tried to make sure it was spread evenly!

@@i_try_diy thanks. I just completed my lawn renovation as well. I went a little heavier on the seed, and hoping to get an amazing result as yours.

Awesome, good luck!! I know it's a lot of work I hope it turns out great for you

That's great to hear! Best of luck I hope it turns out amazing for you!

Good question! Some of the peat moss material clumps up and isn't fine enough to fit through the spreader holes, so I'm just removing and discarding the chunks and twigs that are left in there.

@@i_try_diy got it. 👍 I’ll be renovating one section of my front lawn in a couple of days. First time tackling a project like this 🫰

Good luck you got this! Take your time, and make sure you don't let it dry out once the seed is down 👍

Let me know if any specific questions come up

@@i_try_diy Thanks!

I appreciate the comment! I'm really happy with the results. Definitely lots of hard work and patience!

You're very welcome!👍

Thank you! I appreciate the tip!

I used about 6 bails of peat, which are 3 cubic feet each. And it was around 3,000 sq feet of lawn. So around 6 cubic feet per 1,000 sq feet of lawn if my math maths?

Here's one that looks very similar to the one I have. I have not tried it, but same price point and good reviews. Might be worth a shot! amzn.to/4d62Ax8

Thanks so much!🙏

Wow that's a huge compliment thank you, his channel is stellar 🙌

Glad to hear it was helpful, I appreciate the comment!! You got this 🤘

Agree with you... I've used it about three times in my life, and this was one of them. I try to avoid where possible! Thanks

Thank you! 🙌

It's right around 3000 sq feet. I used 5-6 bails of peat moss (3 cubic feet each). Hope that helps!

Thanks for the comment! Yeah that was definitely a lesson learned for me that first time around 👍

@@i_try_diy Lol...ya me to!😉

Thanks for the comment! I only have experience with paint, and my best advice would be to clean it as soon as you possibly can once you finish. The longer it sits and dries, becomes a lot harder to get clean!

I'd wait at least 10 days. I think I waited 2 weeks.

Good luck on your project! Would love to hear how it goes for you

Thanks! I spread two cubic yards of soil, and used about 5 bails of peat moss (3 cubic feet each)

Thanks for the comment! Yes you're 100% right, an inexpensive sprayer is the way to go. I just decided to use what I had lying around, but well worth the $40 investment to save the time and effort. Thanks!

Added thin layer of soil before seeding, and a layer of peat moss after seeding👍

@@i_try_diy okay thanks for responding

@@i_try_diy Do you recommend any specific topsoil or you had some delivered locally.

Pretty much anything will do. If you just get the plain topsoil there's no real nutrients in it, but will still do the job. I ordered some good nutrient rich soil from a local nursery which worked well.

@@i_try_diy Thanks again, wonderful recommendations

This product is designed to be essentially waterproof and repel moisture. Not sure about applying an additional product over the top of it

Thank you! The biggest reasons were that it germinates and establishes quickly, it's more drought-tolerant (I live in a desert), and typically more fungus resistant. I don't need the perfect or premium lawn, just something that's functional and low maintenance!

Thank you so much! 🙏

@@i_try_diy do you have a irrigation system or you hand watering ?

I have an irrigation system, but also hand watered areas that get more sunlight or dry out quicker etc. as needed

@@i_try_diy nice ! I was going to hold off on my backyard renovation until next year but I saw your video and couldn’t help but to get started this fall lol. I order my new seed today . My backyard about 2,500 sq feet. Hopefully I could get some similar results as you and I’ll be very happy lol.

That's awesome good luck! You've got this

Thank you so much! 🙏

Good luck! Not sure where you are but just keep an eye on temps, as long as it's not too scorching hot you should be good to go.

@@i_try_diy I'm in the Virginia area and the temperature is between 90 and 95 and it will start to drop next week starting Thursday. And thank you very much for answering here, you've earned yourself a new subscriber.

I appreciate it! Best of luck to you, you got this!

Thanks for sharing the wisdom!

Thank you! I appreciate the comment 🙏

I just used a regular rake for collecting the dead grass, it was pretty brutal but effective. You could also use a mower with a bag, as long as you don't care about your blade getting dull from all the dirt etc. For the soil, I just picked up a truck load from a local nursery and spread it out with a wheelbarrow and leveling tool. Depending on how much soil you need/want to add, you could just grab bags from the store and use those!

Aerating definitely won't hurt! But scarifying accomplishes much the same thing, so certainly not necessary. Good luck!

thanks much appreciated

Thank you I really appreciate the comment!

Good luck! It's a lot of work but so worth it in my opinion. Take your time and make sure you're diligent about watering!

@@i_try_diy 👍🤞🏼
