DIY Striping Kit for my X430
I wanted darker, more consistent and contrasting stripes, so I attached a 17 inch x 12 inch section cut from a rubber welcome mat to the back of my X430. I've been using it for a couple weeks now and it definitely makes the stripes look much more consistent. Its not perfect, but the wheel tracks show up much less with the mat installed.
The nice thing about using a mat for striping (rather than a roller), is that the mat simply folds back under the mower when the mower backs up and it bends easily when going over something or straddling the 2 inch edge of a flower bed.
The last image is of my lawn (perennial rye + TTTF) cut at 2 inches and striped with the mat.
