A Rigby Taylor Cover-Up

April 24, 2018/in News, Press Release/by External Source

New Green-Out paint is an advanced technology green paint from Rigby Taylor that has been developed especially to cover up existing surface markings. An application of Green-Out will cover and conceal white lines and coloured stencilled logos, however unlike a traditional green paint it blends in better with the natural grass surfaces.

Two formulations are available

Impact Green-Out is a ready-to-use formulation for use on natural grass surfaces and applied through a spray marker such as an iGO.

Duraline Green-Out is also for use on natural grass surfaces and applied through a transfer wheel marker up to a 5:1 dilution rate.

Both formulations are easy to use and available in 10L drums.

Director, Iestyn John said: “We need to cover lots of ground fast. Clients want you in and out so they can get on with their business. Even at speed the Wiedenmanns can be relied upon do a neat and tidy job.”

Ahead of the season launching Easter meeting at Bath Race Course, PVSGM spiked the whole race course easily within a normal working day.

Iestyn working with his father, Steve John, said because of relentless poor weather it was the first occasion they had the machines in tandem.

“The Bath track is about 7 hectares. We started in the home straight with the tractors facing separate directions. Tine holders on the legs of XD are slightly further apart than the GXi8 so hole patterns weren’t strictly identical but matched closely. Both were set to 150 mm deep with heave at 10° as the roots are quite shallow and there’s a base of Cotswold stone beneath. We kept to a steady 3 km / hr.

“Last year the same job took us two days. Now with the extra Terra Spike when we see a weather window, clients will get the benefit. We can get the jobs done faster. “

PVSGM have been operating in South Wales and the South West for over 30 years. With several race courses on their books they also maintain and renovate bowls, tennis rugby, cricket and football surfaces as well as helping a host of synthetic customers.
