Today we're testing a lawn mower striping kit to see if they actually make a difference when mowing a lawn. Now you guys know our Exmark Lazer Z stripes lawns pretty incredibly without one, but so many of you swear by striping kits and I wanted to see what it looked like with one on the unit and on our lawn.
I will say this, the test from this property was a little inconclusive. However, after using it over the last week and a half by the time this video posted, I will say it really does look nice on our residential lawns with the Kentucky blue grass. Stay tuned for some fun future videos and impressions with the stripe kit and also check out the lawns on Instagram as we post some fun time-lapses there!
Do you guys use a striping kit on your units? What about on a push mower or even at home on your own property? I'm curious to hear your guys opinion on whether or not striping kits are worth the investment.

Do you guys run striping kits on your units? Love to hear your thoughts! I will say, after running ours all last week, I do feel like it makes the lawn stripes more distinct and have more contrast. Still trying to decide how I feel with it on.

I run a striping kit on my 30-inch walk-behind Toro Timemaster. The striping kit on this time Master makes a huge difference due to the fact that the tires are quite narrow and do not bend the grass. However on tractors and Zero Turns The Wide rear tires really help define each pass with a stripe. I Don't Run a striping kit on my tractor it already Stripes quite well. Brian as far as the striping kit for your Exmark I can see maybe 5% difference in the contrast of the stripes at best,...minuscule to say the least.

Hey Brian I’m Trever from new edge lawn care I just wanted to say thank you so much for inspiring me to grow my business I’m 16 years old and so far this year I have bought a 2020 exmark radius, a stihl stick edger, stihl hedge trimmer and a stihl 271 chainsaw, 5/1/2 - 10 foot trailer and a truck I started this business with a $75 dollar push mower and have grown to this from the age of 10-16 now doing 16 lawns a week and getting landscaping jobs regularly thank you so much for the advice to help me grow my business I wish the best to all of you god bless.

Your property is looking better every time you mow. I could see a bit of a difference. We had a flap type kit on our first mower. It worked pretty good. I jacked up the back of the mower and took off the wheels when adjusting it. Much easier to get to the backside of the deck. Just a little tip for anyone else that might try to install one. Tight squeeze working in your trailer but you got it done.

Definitely see the bolder stripes “with” the kit.. I noticed it immediately. Also outstanding camera shots brother!! Those different angles on the mower showing the kit in action was pretty sweet.. ( even the one under the deck till the screen got covered lol ). Keep up the great work @Brian.. love watching you all grow!! Stay blessed brother!!

Wow! Nice! I have been watching you channel throughout the spring and the summer and you have really helped me out a lot with several tips. Without the striping kit you do a really really great job! Thank you so much for sharing. It's my first season trying start and do lawn care and hopefully next year will be twice as good. May The Most High continue to bless you and your family!

Years ago we had a 36" Exmark TT and had a Big League Lawns kit on it and it was like night and day with the stripes. I think our Lazers leave a great finish without any kits. There's many factors that make stripes look better than others...Type of grass, angle of the sun (when your looking at them), height of cutting. I think one of the biggest things for a great looking lawn is straight lines.
@andyostertag
@andyostertag 3 года назад
For the straightest lines, keep focused upon your ending point, don't watch the mower.. Riding horses taught me that it's all the same. Focus and feel is key in most matters

I run a Harrison Specialties striping roller on my Z-Trak. It definitely leaves a more pronounced stripes in the lawn, but it will depend on how you have it adjusted. If the roller is lightly rolling along the grass, you might not notice a big difference. Running the roller lower and "pushing" down the grass further will leave a better stripe, but also lead to more wear & tear on your machine as the roller/deck will be jostled around when hitting bumps in the lawn. If I was mowing for money like I used to, I would not want to run a rigid roller like this as it makes for a bumpier ride and excess wear on your machine when going fast. If you raise the roller enough to avoid this issue, you probably won't see much difference in results as seen in the video here. Just my two cents... Nice video Brian

The kit you have use to be what exmark had, I am guessing they cheapened them up some. I have had one in place since 05 and its bouncing off rocks all the time. I do not still have a business but I do still have my 05 liquid cooled 60' and a Kubota ZD21. I am just at a point where I want a new mower so have been comparing the two in new versions.

Absolutely more bold with the stripe kit. They really do make your stripes POP. I do agree with you on the top end grasses like Kentucky blue, tall fescue and perennial rye grass having much more brighter stripes going out and much more darker green coming back especially if you drop the roller/striper as low as it will possibly go without causing problems. You made a great move equipping that Lazer with that kit. Once people see this you are going to be really busy and will need a big crew. If I was you I would equip all your mowers with a stripe kit. Believe me you will have lots of business.

I have a harrison specialties stripe kit on my 60 lazer E series and on my older 2002 60 lazer. They definitely help lay bolder stripes. On some properties, after I cut once, I lower the deck and let the roller rest on the ground and then go over the lawn again (without the blades engaged). Just make sure to raise the deck when making sharp turns.. Doing that was a game changer for me. I wish I could post pictures.

Thanks Brian, I own a landscaping company in Massachusetts. People here are insane about how there lawns look! Anything to make there yard better than the neighbors. So i added striping kits. Here on the south shore it’s all about them stripes. And yes your stripes were definitely noticeable different. Keep up the great posts! Btw I as well tried the 18hp billy goat leaf loader not bad.

Just started watching this channel…. My two cents… Stripping is finding the right side of the blade of grass, and making them all the same (per strips) Try this. Drag gentle bristles floor broom (aka 36, 48” brooms) in front of the roller… broom will reorient the blade of grass before rolling. Mistake I have seen… too much weight on roller. Depending on speed of mower, weight adjusted for gentle broom combing of grass blades. The roller “I call it the polisher”. One last thing, if you put it behind your wheels… tire tracks disappear 🫥. For me it’s fun to “cut/designed/do a makeover” lawns. Have fun!

My Kubota zd 326 stripes great with no stripping kit, my 2 wright 52 in stripes great also they do have the kit. Yes it depends on how your looking at the lawn and where the sun is. Don't like high lift blades as they bring up everything , just don't need them. Your property looks great Brian !

I run a stripe kit just like the exmark one on my radius 48”x series and it makes a giant difference on nice turf, plus on the video the sun wasn’t really hitting the grass right looking from your trailer but the drone footage shows yes clearly the lines are way sharper and more defined on the stripe kit right side if you ask me. Harrison specialties makes a exmark stripe clone basically that’s legit well built with grease fittings and all and unlike the exmark kit you don’t have to skip a mortgage payment or 2 to buy it. Look it up for your mower and see if they make one for specific model, best kept secret

I notice that is a pretty bumpy yard you have there. All those bumps are absorbed by your spine. You may not notice it while you're young, but later you'll feel it. I ride with a large cushion that covers the seat and the back rest. My back hasn't hurt since I started using it. Take care of yourself.

I’m currently running the same striping kit. Going to get a Harrison striping kit, it’s one solid steel roller. Have issues with the small end rollers popping off. I just got some Oregon 3” wide hi lift blades. Man those things discharge amazingly. It would’ve been a lot easier if you’d have jacked up the Z and removed the rear tires for installation. I’m fortunate to have a hoist I got at harbor freight

Rollers are the best for stripes. It takes a few cuts to "burn them in " We run them on all our mowers they do make a difference and most clients love striped lawns. Once the lines are burned in after 5 or 6 weeks you can mow without roller and the lines are just as defined.

Us British know a thing or two about mowers with striping capabilities as we have pedestrian mowers and ride on tractor mowers with steel or plastic rear rollers fitted to create decent stripes. We are one of the only markets in the world that a majority of people want stripes on the lawn. The two brands of riding lawn mowers sold in the UK that are great at striping are Countax and Westwood which are both owned by Ariens.
@davidcooper6196
@davidcooper6196 4 года назад
What I don't like is you have to adjust the height of the roller for the height of the grass you're cutting you may have to lower your roller a little to get the darker strip trie lowering your deck and see if it helps.

I have one on my scage cheetah and it mounts on the back on the mower behind the wheels and comes off woth two pins if you need to take it off it also raises and lowers with two pins for transporting. Actually there it saved me from a roll over on a hill being behind the wheels. Nice video mounting the things can be a pain but like the scag setup i have for sure. Cant pop the two pins off and dismount if you need to life the mower.

Feel your pain on needing a shop. Moved from Macomb county to northern Michigan almost 7 years ago and have been trying to get a shop built the entire time. This year I was finally ready only to have material prices skyrocket this year due to “rona”. I use a stripe kit on my 30” toro time master and it makes a huge difference, it is a floating roller though so it lays on the ground. I think the fact that the roller is suspended with the deck and doesn’t make contact with the ground it doesn’t bend the grass blades over enough to make it more of a pronounced stripe. The roller on mine also has a rubber rake at the leading edge to help align the grass blades. I mow at 3.75”-4”. My lawn is a blend of Fescue and Kentucky Blue and is irrigated and fertilized regularly. My ditch is more crabgrass and weeds and does not stripe good at all so your theory of lawn quality effecting stripes should be correct. Love the channel, you have been a good source of motivation in my pursuit of lawn care. God bless you and the wife.

The stock Ferris stripe kit works great, all it is, is a piece of rubber that bolts to the back of the deck and hangs down 2". I made one for my Z2 by just using a roll of 1/8" thick rubber sheeting I ordered from Amazon instead of spending $100 for the accessory.

Before installing a stripe kit on my exmark radius e series I really wasn't too impressed with the striping. I ended up getting a stripe kit from harrison specialties and it makes a huge difference. It was also a pretty big pain to install though, probably worse considering I had to drill some holes and the bolt locations were in awkward hard to reach areas. Another drawback I have found is that having a heavy steel roller attached to the mower deck can create extra deck bouncing when going over uneven terrain but all in all it's worth having

Hard to tell the difference. We don't run striping kits but both our Hustler & Ferris stripe really well. We power wash underside of decks every week when we change blades.. sharp blades and good clean airflow for max uplift seems to work for most of our yards.. Kentucky Blue grass at 3.25"..

I’ve never put a striping kit on mine. The stripe kit is the entire width of the deck, which makes no sense. I like to see the wheel marks between light and dark. I have people ask me all the time if I have a stripe kit on my mower because it stripes that good without it (Hustler Fastrak). I feel like stripe kits are a lot for homeowners who want that grass bend because the homeowner mowers don’t have as much vacuum and bend as the commercial decks.

When the kit is mounted to the deck, it doesn’t allow the full weight of the roller to bend the grass. Roller needs to float independent of the deck height. I stripe with a Honda 21” and have very distinct stripes. Consider making a V bracket and connect the stripe roller to the hitch and see what difference it makes.

A $30 stall matt from tractor supply a few bolts and a $10 punched flat bar, bolts, washers and nuts from Home Depot or tractor supply would do as good of better. About the same time building but save about $350. And lol you could supply 5-6 neighbors with the leftover stall matt.

Great video Brian, many thanks. Not that much of a difference to warrant the cost and extra maintenance (greasing points) but I agree that with finer grade grass it may show more. Great shots of it in action and I like that your machine is so clean underneath (our wetter UK climate means our kit is much harder to keep looking good )👍. Couldn’t help noticing the inside walls if your tyres - what on earth are they? Are they airless/solid? Thanks again, mega sharp looking outfit you run 👏👏👏.

Ya know Brian, I just don't personally notice a difference. I agree with you though, your mower already lays stripes very nicely.

Hey man great lines love you’re knowledge, to me it looks the same and I wouldn’t run a striping kit for me.

Ferris comes with a striper. Just a rubber piece that can be adjusted to really comb the grass or slightly

The striping kit side looks a little better, but can’t wait to see the results on treated grass.

It's hard to see when you cut over the same stripe pattern. I say to definitely try in a different direction, maybe it'll make a difference. Also, most of our Scags already come with rollers on the decks ;)

Brian, I really couldn’t tell the difference. They both look great. The question is, should I invest in a striping kit, if the difference isn’t that visible? I’ll be looking forward to the sub- division test. Interesting video though.💯❤️👍🏾✝️🙏🏾🇺🇸

I have a John Deere z540r zero turn with the big league lawn striping kit, and I’m not pleased at all with the stripes. I live in the Midwest and have Kentucky Bluegrass which is supposed to be great for striping. I’ve cut at level between 3”-3.75” and it shows no difference. All I want is bold stripes, and can’t seem to get them.

I think the striping kit made them a little more defined. Did not notice a difference when you were mowing the HOA today, so is a customer going to notice? I would but that’s me and I compare my yard to everyone in the subdivision. Will check out some of the homes this week when you mow the residential lots.
