St. Patrick's Day is just around the corner!
Celebrate the holiday like they do in Forsyth Park (Savannah, Georgia) or at the San Antonio Riverwalk (Texas) with our Emerald Green water dye. This dye is specifically designed for use in fountains, small ponds, water features, and canals.
Pond dyes are one of the easiest products to apply to a pond! In many cases, pouring the product in one area will do the trick, and the dye itself with spread out on its own. Depending on how you are using Emerald Green with your festivities, you might need to get a little more creative with application. If applying to a larger pond or a river, you may want to walk around the edge, use a boat, or even a type of sprayer to allow the dye to spread out more quickly and get the most out of the experience.
Colorant is largely based on personal preference. Every body of water will take a colorant differently. Existing pond dye can alter the color of Emerald Green. We advise users to test a sample from the body of water by adding a drop of dye to a glass of pond water to test the dye reaction to current pigments in water. When adding Emerald Green water dye to city water expect dye to last for a shorter period of time due to the chlorine in city water.
The number one destroyer of metal products...rust!
Rust is the product of a combination of metal, moisture, and oxygen coming together and reacting with one another. Millions of metal tools are rendered useless each year because of a combination of moisture and air. The fact is that rust can be very difficult to stop and difficult to deal with once it is already started to take over.
Having a rust spot is not an automatic death sentence for the item. A rust converter can prevent more rust from forming and can prep the area for a repaint. Rust Kutter can safely be used on farm equipment, garden tools, cars, trucks, or livestock equipment. It works by binding itself to metal and preventing moisture and oxygen from attacking the metal surface. The balanced formula allows for the rust to chemically change to phosphate.
To apply Rust Kutter simply clean large flakes of existing rust with a wire brush then spray or paint Rust Kutter on damaged area. The area will become a black or white chalky film after the product is dried. Once the surface has dried completely, rinse off the product, apply your primer, then paint!
It is always amazing to see the transformation ponds make with our products throughout the season. Correctly identifying the growth, having the right products, knowing how much to use, and having consistency with treatments are the key elements in how you transform your pond into the most popular feature on your property.
Just take a look at some of our favorite before & after photos from this season!
We have all heard of mineral oil, but what is it used for?
Mineral oil as a whole can have hundreds of household and industrial uses. Our Mineral Oil is food-grade, meaning that it can be used on products that come in direct contact with food. This makes it great for kitchen use. Wipe down your stainless steal appliances with Mineral Oil for a perfect shine or use it on your knives to help prevent corrosion. Cutting boards and wooden utensils will dry out, warp, and crack after extended use. Mineral Oil helps rejuvenate these to prolong their lifespan.
A pond has everything necessary to support algae and weed growth: plenty of water, sunlight, and nutrients. Some ponds offer more sunlight and nutrients than other ponds, causing the fight against them to be difficult.
