SOIL MOIST™

Application
    *Prior to any application the arena soil should be broken up to at least 3-4 inches (7.2 cm-10.1cm) in depth.
    *If wood chips and shavings are present, use the application rate for sand.
    *Depending on the type of arena soil, Soil Moist™ should be applied at the following rates:

DO NOT USE SOILMOIST ARENA CONDITIONER IF
CALCIUM CHLORIDE HAS BEEN APPLIED.

Broadcast the polymer with a spreader or drop seeder for even disbursement. To ensure even disbursement, plot out 1000 square feet (25'x40') (92.9 sq meters or 7.62 m x 12.1 m )or any measurement to equal 1000 square feet (92.9 sq meters)). Set the spreader or drop seeder opening at the smallest setting. Fill the seeder or spreader with the appropriate amount for 1000 square feet (92.9 sq meters). Broadcast the polymer in the plot. If too much polymer is left in the hopper after the first pass, make proper adjustments to ensure all product is dispersed.

Work the polymer into the arena at the desired depth using a rototiller, harrow or disk. If a harrow is used, the spacing between the tines should be a minimum of six inches. If necessary, remove every other tine. Note: Apply up to two pounds more of the Soil Moist per 1000 square feet where heavy traffic occurs in the arena (outer ring of the arena, etc.). Water liberally; water routine should be normal for five to seven days. Water rates and reductions can then be established. Soil Moist must be worked into the arena at the above depths to be effective. If left on the surface, UV light will break the polymer down. Salt content of the water and the pH of the arena affect the absorption capacity of the polymer. If the pH of the arena soil is above 8.0 or if calcium chloride has been recently applied, contact the factory for specific application rates.
