advice on buying new Quad accessories

Paddysniper

Hello,
I will have a 420 Honda quad in a few weeks and I am looking for some advice on buying a new weed licker or weedwiper, also a fertilizer spreader.
The weed wiper I'm thinking about getting is a standard carpet roller one.
The spreaders are a bit more complicated, lots of variety and sizes.
can anyone recommend some or dealers that are sound.
any info is appreciated, thanks

Quadventure in Clonroche, they have a quad track down there, they impressed me, I'd talk to them the next time I'm buying a quad.....they'd have the quads well tested.

We bought a sprayer through the welsh quad lads via eBay.

Was it one with a boom or one of those single jets that sprays a wide area? Wonder are they any good.

Folding spring loaded boom, also has lance.

Not sure about the broadcast spreaders as I believe the chemicals rely on being applied via an atomised mist that they don’t provide.

Nice one, another must have!
Ah I’d imagine the boom is the best option, probably need perfect conditions for the single jet i mentioned.
