Stay one step ahead of the winter weather with this StoneCare4U Essential De-Icer. This eco-friendly alternative to rock salt is a modern version of a driveway salt perfect for clearing pathways, drives, car parks and patios. It is suitable for use on concrete, tarmac, patio slabs, block paving and imprinted concrete surfaces. This de-icer is a safe and cost-effective alternative to other corrosive salt-based de-icing products. It is very effective and has been used to melt snow for years. This de-icer provides a safe solution to any slippery ice or snow-covered surface. Perfect to beat the freeze, it works equally well during spells of freezing rain and severe cold. Easy to use, one cup full of the product will be enough to cover an area about the size of a parking space. For added convenience, it comes in a granular form for ease of transportation and application. It is recommended to use the product sparingly before the ice starts to form, or the snow starts to fall, for best results. This method will help prevent the ice from forming or the snow from settling down. The de-icer is effective for up to 48 hours and can be re-applied at any time to clear snow and ice. If the snow is already present, try to sweep away as much as possible. This will reduce the amount of de-icing product required. Simply sprinkle the granules over the surface and watch it instantly go to work on melting snow and ice. The granules quickly penetrate through ice and snow, instantly starting to break down the bond between the ice and the treated surface. This de-icer is environmentally friendly and contains no rock salt, driveway salt or other harmful ingredients. It is safe to use in all private and public areas including car parks and pedestrian areas. Also, the product is safe to touch during application and will not ‘burn’ or damage neighbouring grassed areas. Moreover, other forms of vegetation such as plants and soil will not be adversely affected if the product is used within adjacent areas or runoffs. It will not cause any long-term harm if it’s accidentally consumed by children or pets. Also, as it contains no rock salt, it will not corrode any form of metal. Plus, the rusting of vehicles or plant equipment can be a thing of the past. Please note: One kg of product covers approximately the equivalent area of five kg of rock salt. Size: 20kg.
