farmer 1,075 #26 Posted January 4, 2011 Hello "Gator", I'm sure i will be sourcing a trailed broadcast spreader like Rays, only smaller, for my needs. I started this thread out of curiousity. Clearing/moving snow we have the tools for...it was how to keep the surface safe afterwards that interested me. Your solution, using a saline solution through your very smart combo is yet another method (just wondering what the freezing point of the liquid is?). This is what makes R S so good, its global coveridge. Thanks ps I see you've abbreviated...NC.. i notice this all the time in posts from US members...any chance someone could list them up somewhere? Thanks again. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

KC9KAS 4,741 #29 Posted January 7, 2011 Our area highway department sprays the "beet juice" (rim-gaurd) on the roads as a pretreatment.....This helps remove the snow & ice after it falls. The rim-gaurd is the stuff we discussed using as the fluid for weight in our tractor tires. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
