Questions & Answers

Would it be helpful if I used it to locate the leak in my in ground pool?

Hopefully, it will help, but be careful how much you pour in since it can spread a lot.

Do you know if this works to mark what weeds a weed sprayer sprayed?

I assume you could dilute it to make it This is a highly concentrated product that is water soluble, so, when it rains, it will wash off.

It can be used to see where you have sprayed (fertilizer) on your grass. Can grass be sprayed with this?

You can use it on grass without worrying about it harming it. I don't understand why this dye would do any damage to your grass, besides staining it the color of the dye. As far as I know, it's totally biodegradable and safe to dump into the environment.

Do I need an ultraviolet lamp to detect drain stains on the ceiling of the apartment under my bathtub then I poured the product in the bathtub to check for drain stains?

Despite the lack of UV light, the item is extremely visible.

I have found that a little bit goes quite a distance
5/5

I used it to track the drainage lines between two fields in my yard. My farmhouse is more than 150 years old and I have no idea where the It was easy to locate the output of my 80+ year old septic system using this material. It definitely works, and it doesn't take much to accomplish what you want. A quart of this product went into my septic system a few weeks ago, and it was still pink after that. When it comes to tracing lines, this stuff is excellent. Due to not being able to test it in an area of my yard, i am not able to say how well it would show up. Both pvc and clay pipes were the only things I used it for.

You Can Count On This Stuff! A problem with intermittent leaks has been reported! A very small amount of antifreeze dripped on the concrete from time to time
5/5

Despite our best efforts, we were unable to find its source. In the meantime, while we were parked and the engine was at operating temperature, I added 16 ounces of this die to the engine's I burnt a UV light for about 15 minutes after operating the engine for that long. My radiator shield is right under the top right corner of the very top of the radiator, where it was dripping or coming out of. My stop leak went bad, so I headed to the store for some. As a result of which the problem was solved. I've been using it for years.

The leak has been found

A leak between the hot tub and the hot tub was discovered using it. Just as I had hoped, you got me to the right place.

The dye works great as a tracer

Having you on my side saved me from potential legal action! I'm very happy with it! This prevented me from having to face the neighbor in court.

The green dye is what you need! My previous experience with the green dye led me to try this

A bucket of this stuff barely picked it up with my UV light. It's time to head back to my.

It is easy to identify this color
5/5

It does what it's supposed to do. We used it to diagnose problems with septic leach fields. It was clear what I needed to do. In my case, I pumped out the recommended amount of septic wastewater and checked my tank the next day. I was very pleased with the results.
