General Information
  • POINTBLANK® is a unique PAM based Deposition Aid and Drift Retardant. This new technology adjuvant decreases driftable fines while improving deposition in pesticide spraying. POINTBLANK® disperses easily and is effective at low usage rates.
  • POINTBLANK® is compatible with glyphosate herbicides, and with most water soluble and wettable powder pesticides, desiccants, and cotton defoliants when applied by aerial application or standard ground equipment. POINTBLANK®, when used as directed in accordance with sound agricultural practices is in compliance with Federal Food and Drug Administration Regulations governing the cropland use of adjuvants and is exempt from tolerance requirements under Title 40, Code of Federal Regulations 180.

Applications & Uses

Applicable Crop
Use Precautions
  • The degree of drift hazard varies with the type of pesticide, application conditions, and vegetation near the sprayed area. Consult your local agricultural advisor. Remember, pesticide drift is no accident. Common sense and sound application technology must be followed when spraying pesticides. POINTBLANK® will retard, but not totally eliminate drift.
Directions for Use

NOT FOR AQUATIC USENOTE: This product is extremely concentrated and effective in mixing as low as 1 oz. Per 100 gallons. Start with lower dosage and increase as needed. A thickened or “stringy” solution indicates that too much POINTBLANK® has been used.

  • Step 1.Select correct dosage from chart below.
  • Step 2.Fill mix tank with water, pesticide and other additives and begin to agitate.
  • Step 3.SHAKE POINTBLANK® BOTTLE WELL BEFORE USING.
  • Step 4.For best mixing results, either
  1. inject POINTBLANK® liquid into the suction side of the feeder or recirculating pump to obtain adequate dispersion of the polymer throughout the pesticide solution, or 
  2. slowly add POINTBLANK® liquid to the rapidly agitating tank mix in the area of highest turbulence by pouring a very thin stream.
  • Step 5.Continue to agitate mix tank for at least 2 minutes before spraying.
  • Step 6.Follow all cleanup precautions on label of pesticide used. Follow governmental procedures for disposal of pesticide spray solution.

For home and garden sprayers, use approximately 1 Tablespoon of POINTBLANK® per 5 gallons of spray solution. To avoid product degradation and equipment corrosion, do not use iron, copper, or aluminum containers or equipment. This material reacts slowly with iron, copper, and aluminum, resulting in corrosion and product degradation. Do not store near oxidizing agents.
