Q: What if it doesn't work?

It will! If you are concerned, take pictures of your lawn the day before the application and then one week later. It's impossible to see change when you look at the incremental improvement daily. Looking at the difference over a week is where you can see change in a lawn. If you aren't happy with the change, don't pay! Only pay if you love it.
