Best lawn dressing is 70-30.
A combination of 70% fine sand (Celica best) and 30% fine 3mm (3/16th") sieved loamy soil. It wants to be dry, or will not spread evenly.
Adds nutrient, and levels at same time. Good nitrogen high feed before putting down, and brush in dressing.
Works a treat.
A month after applying you will need lumberjacks in to cut it!
