NASCAR got TV ready faster than ever using Endurant grass paint
When it comes to NASCAR, it’s not just the cars that could use some extra paint. NASCAR recently used Endurant turf colorant to rev up for the races.
NASCAR knows how to cover their tracks. Tire tracks went from zero to green in record time using Endurant turf colorant. And watching paint dry is nothing in comparison to waiting for grass to grow in time for the next NASCAR race. When it comes to getting green grass fast, Endurant turf colorant puts the pedal to the metal for a huge acceleration toward beautiful green grass.
Endurant isn't just fast. It also lasts, up to 3 months, depending upon the rate of growth, mowing, and off track maneuvers from race car drivers.
Before and after photos using Endurant Premium turf colorant on the NASCAR race track:

We don't mean roundup as in hazardous chemicals. We mean roundup as in a collection of the most awesome ways Endurant users choose the earth friendly way to get green grass.
Endurant turf colorants continue to go the extra mile this winter, bringing lasting color to golf courses, baseball fields, home lawns, even Nascar race tracks, among other places.
Endurant turf colorants beautify turfgrass while saving water, fertilizer, harsh chemicals, and overseed. This means golf course superintendents, among other Endurant users, are saving money while minimizing damaging effects to water and the overall environment.
Endurant users love to share their experiences with colorants on social media, including Twitter and Facebook.
Here's a roundup of Endurant turf colorants at work this winter:
The name says it all: Endurant turf colorants provide lasting green color.
How do you get green grass that lasts all winter long? Freezing, snow, drought, dormancy and the grass is still green? Golf course superintendents and sod growers across the country reported their green grass endured a long winter by using Endurant turf color enhancers.
Ground is frozen, but the grass is green
That's right, it's well into winter, below freezing and the grass is still green on the golf course. Patrick Reinhardt, the Georgia Southern University Golf Course Superintendent and Georgia Golf Course Superintedents' Association board member, isn't the only one pleased to see green this winter. Players and visitors loved a green course from fall through spring.
"27 degrees and we're still green," said Reinhardt.

Endurant often lasts three months or more maintaining a natural green grass color on dormant grass. The lasting nature of Endurant depends upon several factors, particularly the rate of grass growth and the frequency of mowing.

Dormant turf does well with Endurant, or "Liquid overseed," as an alternative to the more costly and resource-demanding practice of overseeding dormant turfgrass. Overseed often requires over-watering, over-fertilizing, and more harsh chemical usage than choosing Endurant turf colorants.

In several cases, Endurant didn't just endure the winter, Endurant endured the worst.

"We've painted on frost, dew, and now, snow. Just a dusting and it's going down great!" exclaimed Jason Sanderson, a golf course superintendent at Cherokee Country Club, located in Knoxville, Tennessee.
While it's not recommended to paint in the rain, snow, or sleet, especially not your first time using a colorant, some golf course superintendents are hardcore. However, painting turf is very effective after a very light mist, morning dew, or light frost, regardless of experience level. Generally, the lightness of the moisture on the turf is crucial. A heavy downpour would not be effective. The turfgrass surface certainly does not have to be dry to apply Endurant paints. That mild moisture can actually contribute to optimal leaf blade coverage.

Sod growers, sports field managers and golf course superintendents find Endurant turf colorants are a viable solution to use during overseed transitions or instead of overseed entirely
Turfgrass managers choose Endurant turf colorants instead of overseed for economics, aesthetics, and agronomics
Endurant sows seeds of potential for sod growers & other turfgrass professionals
Many turfgrass professionals find Endurant provides better turf, true natural color, and agronomic benefits while decreasing costs and environmental strains caused by overseeding. Overseeding requires more water usage and damage to water sources as overseeding often includes overwatering and over-fertilizing winter turf.
While Endurant turf colorants aren't really anything new, more and more people in professions including agriculture, golf course management, landscaping, sod farming, real estate, sports field management, and others are learning how helpful Endurant turf color enhancers can be in a variety of conditions, including drought, dormancy, water restrictions, tight budgets, television and filming.
Endurant can be used on dormant turf, actively growing grass, warm season and cool season grasses.
Ask Mr. Wise Grass about Endurant turf colorants
West Coast Turf and their sister company Western Sod have lauded the benefits of Endurant as an alternative to overseed. Mr. Wise Grass is the name of a West Coast Turf blog where a turfgrass pro named Jay posts information on everything you need to know about the best sod and turfgrass for your environment, uses, and budget. He answers common questions regarding issues surrounding grass and more technical issues that can be resolved with years of professional experience.
Here's what Jay has to say about Endurant turf paint:
This product can be applied to overseeded or dormant turf to give your lawn the same ryegrass color you seeded with. The turf paint serves another purpose besides just providing color. It heats up the plant and will allow for faster spring green up in dormant turf and will help new ryegrass plants fill in any voids from the encroaching bermudagrass during seeding.
