Surefoot De-Icer [10L] (52/P) - Each

Based on powerful deicing technology developed for the aviation industry, Surefoot is a high performance liquid deicer for use on footpaths and public thoroughfares, or any situation where ice poses a risk to pedestrians and users.

As Surefoot is a liquid deicer it starts melting ice immediately after application; unlike solid deicers which need to dissolve in water before becoming active. It is supplied in easy to handle drums which stack neatly and safely for simple storage. Any unused deicer can be poured back into the drum and stored indefinitely.

Key Points -

Simple to Handle: Surefoot is simple to handle and easy to store

Non-Corrosive: Unlike salt, Surefoot is effectively non-corrosive. Salt damages concrete, plants and paving and can be slow acting and messy to apply and store.

Lower Temperatures: Surefoot maintains effective ice control to much lower temperatures than salt, remaining active down to temperatures as low as -50°C, salt starts losing effectiveness below -7°C.

Fast Acting: Surefoot rapidly penetrates the snowpack and ice and quickly breaks the bond between the ice and the surface, allowing easy removal by brushing and shovelling. The Surefoot that remains on the surface then inhibits further ice formation.

Use on External Hard Surfaces: Surefoot can be used on all types of hard surface, it is also safe if applied to grass.

No Unwanted Residue: Unlike salt, Surefoot doesn’t leave a gritty residue that can be transferred to indoor surfaces on footwear.

Application

Application is straightforward. Pour straight from the drum into your choice of applicator. For small areas the most convenient way is via a watering can, using a fine rose. For larger areas, application by standard sprayer is ideal, from simple hand-pumped garden sprayers to more sophisticated knapsack sprayers with hand held booms.
