Blue Ice Melt 45 lb Pail, CMA Enhanced Blend for Driveways
About this item
- You can see your coverage. Blue granules contrast with pavement and snow, so you spread evenly instead of doubling up on one strip and missing the next.
- Made to be gentler on hard surfaces. The pail art says the blend is specially formulated to be gentler to nature and your surfaces than traditional ice melts, and names concrete, pavers, brick, asphalt, stone, decking and metal.
- A four part blend. Magnesium chloride, sodium chloride and agricultural based corrosion inhibitors, enhanced with CMA (calcium magnesium acetate), as printed.
- Non corrosive and fast acting, by the label. Both are printed on the front of the pail.
- Pet friendly. The label reads "Safe for pets".
- Packaged in a 45 lb bucket. The pail art calls it easy to use; it has a lid and a wire handle for carrying to the steps.

How to Spread Blue Ice Melt
General practice for granular ice melt; follow any directions printed on the pail.
- Shovel the loose snow first so the granules land on the ice, not on top of the snow.
- Scoop or spread a thin, even layer. Watch the blue: where you can see it, you have covered.
- Give it time to work, then push the slush off before it can refreeze.
- Sweep leftover granules off pavers and decking once the surface is clear, and put the lid back on the pail.
