They won't work at all on dirt. On grass and carpet yellows are good and on wet grass greens are ok but none of the compounds work on dirt. The rubber is a way too hard to be any use at all on dirt.

Unless you can get some old stock Pink or BIBX compounds (no longer available), You will probably find they just are not designed to work on dirt.
