How to use

Before a snowfall, Alaskan® Premium Ice Melter can be applied up to 48 hours before a snowfall. It will prevent the build-up of snow and ice and keep ice from bonding with the surface.

AFTER A SNOWFALL:

In case of a large accumulation of snow (more than 5 cm or 2 in), plow or shovel first.
Using our spreader jug, apply Alaskan® Premium Ice Melter evenly on the surface. Do not overapply and avoid piling. Apply Alaskan® Premium Ice Melter at a rate of 50 to 100 g (¼ to ½ cup) per m².
Remove melting snow and ice as soon as the melting action has loosened the ice. Do not pile melting snow and ice containing ice melter on grass or near trees, shrubs or gardens.
Reapply as needed to heavy areas of ice.

RECOMMENDED USE FOR DIFFERENT TYPES OF SNOW:

Dry powdery snow: Can be shoveled or swept and may not require the use of ice melter.

Sleet/freezing rain: Apply Alaskan® Premium Ice Melter early to prevent the build-up of ice.

Wet/heavy snow: Apply Alaskan® Premium Ice Melter as soon as wet/heavy snow begins falling to prevent it from bonding.

Large accumulation of snow: Anytime the snowfall amounts to more than 5 cm (2 in), plow or shovel first. Then use Alaskan® Premium Ice Melter to melt the stubborn layer of ice or hard-packed snow that remains.

Can be used to remove:

Black ice
Sleet or freezing rain
Hard-packed snow

Where to use

Alaskan® Premium Ice Melter can be used safely on asphalt and gravel driveways. When it comes to concrete, some precautions need to be taken.

Alaskan® Premium Ice Melter is recommended for use on good quality, air-entrained concrete designed for cold weather climates as specified by the Portland Cement Association.
Melting snow/ice increases the frequency of the freeze/thaw cycles that can affect all surfaces. Poor quality surfaces may suffer some damage because of these cycles.
The potential for surface damage can be decreased by promptly removing slush as it is formed.
If you are unsure of the quality of your concrete or the suitability of using an ice melter on your surface, use sand to reduce the risk of slips and falls.
The use of Alaskan® Premium Ice Melter is done at the user’s own risk.

Alaskan® Premium Ice Melter is not recommended on the following surfaces:

Concrete that is less than 1 year old
Patterned, stamped and/or coloured concrete
Stone or brick masonry (including flagstone)
Precast concrete (steps or paving stones)
Stone or concrete surfaces that are chipped, cracked, spalled or have exposed aggregate
Wooden surfaces such as decks
Roofs or gutters

Test a small inconspicuous area of the surface to be treated before full application.
