Anyone out there try using brine for snow/ice removal. I saw truck spraying a mix in a parking lot yesterday, and found this link online

How to Make Salt Brine Liquid for Snow Removal | eHow.com (http://www.ehow.com/how_7382473_make-brine-liquid-snow-removal.html)

I'm just wondering if any SB'ers have tried this out??

That's interesting. I may try that with my large capacity sprayer on my walkway and stairs. Thanks for posting!

Be careful where you use it...it will destroy cement and mortar.

This is what I was thinking. My spray bottle is also the fresh water wash down for the boat, I hope I remember to change the water out before summer :rotf2:

TDF - good info, news to me. Here's a little more info about that concern -
