Fertilizer Rust

[DAN COSGROVE]

AT A GOLF COUNTRY CLUB,THEY HAVE A LOT OF RUST STAINING ON CART PATHS,PARTICULARLY AROUND THE CLUB HOUSE. I HAVE DETERMINED ITS FROM THE IRON IN THE FERTILIZER (I think)THAT SIMPLY DROPS OFF THE UNDERCARRAGE WHEN THE CARTS COME OFF THE WET GRASS. THAT SAID,WE TRIED A VARITY OF CHEMS,NO LUCK.I KNOW WE COULD WET SAND BLAST,BUT MESSY AND TIMELY. ANY THOUGHTS ? SURE WOULD LIKE TO SWAP SOME WORK FOR SOME GREAT GOLF. DAN COSGROVE

its the batterys.. this is tough. battery acid is a bummer. tell them to quit over filling the batterys for one. I have opened these before and all the batterys are flowing over the top running down the metal and leaking out and destroying everything.

I wish i could help but if its acids it broke any finish and now is in the concrete.

fight acid with acid.. you may want to call me for a recipe Dan.
