BarkMark^® Water Clean-Up Tree Marking Paint

So I'm used to using Federal Tracer paint, and I finally got to do some non-federal jobs. Bought 20 gallons of the blaze orange for cut-tree marking. A good thirty-second shake before going in the gun, and it's ready to go. Runs great through guns, and I also run it through 4-gallon backpack pesticide sprayers like the Hudson SP0 and the Field King. Without thinning, this stuff stands out like a sore thumb, can see it a hundred yards away easily. Great coverage, dries on bark within minutes. My consumption rate is at least 3X better than A or C paint. Getting about 3-4 acres per gallon consistently. I leave it in my backpack sprayer for a week at a time, and it's fine. Just shake the sucker to be sure and run a functions check. There is a slight chemical odor with this paint, but it's not bad. Doesn't wash off of me or my dog easily. I use alcohol swabs to clean off my glasses. It would take an extreme event for me to willingly switch to another paint.

First time user this year. First gallon (orange, which I believe was complementary) was quite lumpy & I was unable to mix it good enough to eliminate the lumps. Constantly clogged the paint gun tip. Finally threw out the last 1.5 quarts. However, the second gallon worked good; thins easily with water; just make sure you put the gun back into diesel & spray it through the gun when finished for the day or there will be rust problems.

Like the wide mouth containers for poring; and mixing with drill/ paint paddle.

I use this to mark trees for removal. It works great and lasts a long time.
