Haha, I tried doing that with mine but I had too many rolling hilly areas. When I got done it looks like Stevie Wonder cut my grass and I never tried it again! :confused:
Yeah that's my problem too, it's all hills, ups and downs, and if you make a mistake in the back yard, you're in the dam! Someone offered to mow my back yard when I was injured a couple of years ago - until they looked at it! It had to wait until my leg got better.

Mine wasn't that bad but still a PITA to try and make nice lines. One of my friends had a landscaping business and I asked him to come over and see if he could make it look good. He cut it with his zero turn rider (I had a 48" walk behind X Mark) for 2 weeks and he did get it looking good but said it was way too much work because of the slopes. At least then I knew it wasn't just me. lol

I don't miss that at all! First it was all the white pollen then the green. It would pile up against the curb then blow everywhere once a car went by. lol

I'd come out from work and my truck would be covered in that stuff. What was worse is when it rained just enough to turn it to a green paste and not fully wash it off your truck.🤬
I happen to be in Ohio, took this photo yesterday down at the lake.

I'm keeping an eye on these. I think my lawn is too big though. It's almost 2 acres and there is a lot of trimming with a push mower and string trimmer. A lot of slopes and angles. Takes me about 2.5 hours a shot to do it all including the zero rider.
Big no go if you want to map over 1.25 acres. The maps are limited to that area and it will not create maps exceeding that limit. It will mow it if you delete some areas to create new areas but there's no way to save the old maps and recall them after deleting. You have to remap and that takes time. It will do a drop mow but that's iffy. It does a beautiful job and works great for the area it is rated for. Getting the angles mowed to your specifications can be random. You also need good 4g coverage for the best navigation without the RTK pole. It's an amazing little robot if you keep within the specifications. I'm guessing the next generation will eliminate the limitations on area.

Will 303 eliminate static cling of dust and grass stains 🤔

Well, it says right on the bottle it repels dust.:wink:

You know that'd be a great test. Spray some 303 Graphene underneath the robot mower and see if there's any stuck to the bottom when it's done. I bet there isn't and you get a stream of grass shooting out like a cannon. 😁

You think it will work under a 48" steel plate mower deck? How long will a coat last?

There's no harm in trying and I think it would work. I've had it last a solid year on both my Rangers so I can't imagine you'd have to do it more than once a year. It should help keep the underside of the deck from clogging ups with grass but not sure how it'll work if the grass is wet. I use to spray my snowblower chute (and auger) with silicone to keep the snow from clogging it up and it worked pretty good unless it was a really wet heavy snow. The fluffy stuff shot right out!

At my last house I used the Graphene on all our exterior windows. It worked great for repelling dust and the water beaded right off them and never left any spots and whatever dust that was on there I could wipe off quick with a California duster. If it didn't stink so bad I'd use it on the inside of our shower glass but I have another product I use on that.

If that worked on mower decks 🤔, AzScorpion would be richer then Elon Musk 😅.

🤔 You just might on onto something here. The skies the limit if I can find a way to add a damper or two.

Lookout, as this is going to so much bigger than the SpaceX IPO on Friday! :captain: 🚀🚀

You'd really have to get the deck clean before applying it. Pressure washer probably.

Just a pressure wash and I'd use a degreaser just to make sure you get a good surface for the Graphene to adhere to. I also use it on everything with a painted surface to protect it and keep it looking new.

I just got a new HVAC in February and I did the outside condenser unit with the Graphene. It's on the south side of the house so it gets baked in the sun all day so it'll keep it from fading and looking new. Yes, I have a serious problem!
