Question for old timers. Pre salt before the snow and ice storm?

These cucks and the salt jokes never get old.

Unlike the water softeners that may end up getting your houses blown up.

Well if your in Wichita its all washed off now.

You need radiant heating under the driveway. Never shovel again. It's 2020 man, keep up.

Don't forget to refill your water softener with salt! Ahuh Ahuh Ahuh!

Thanks. No money to rip out the driveway and install.

Never use salt on concrete!

But you didnt actually answer my question. Use dumb dumb words for me and make it simple.

Driveway is black asphalt. But I did put it on my concrete sidewalk.

^This!

And get rid of the motherfucking water softeners that you are using to turn everyone into artificial commie cucks. The pH of our water here is fully adjustable, stop being retarded.

Sorry about the rant ponzi dad.

It was lightly raining when I put it down in the drive.

Hoping I don't wake up to a sheet of ice. I live out in the country and its difficult to get in and out with ice.

Nahhh.....flame thrower.....still not illegal in Virginia....

What does a water softener have to do with my driveway...?

When the conditions are like that.....you should stay the fuck home.....just isn't worth it...

Certainly will. But asking for advice. What do country folk do to prepare their driveways for ice and snow?

After your house burns down because you were manufacturing artificial femmie commies, you will not need the driveway any longer.

You shovel the snow after the storm and use commercial ice melt where you need it. Salt will cause your concrete to crumble. I know, because one of my hired hands used stock salt on the sidewalk in front of his house, and ruined it!

Very good, stick to the guns.

Generally nothing. Most "driveways" are gravel or dirt and respond well to a tractor with a loader bucket.

Any concert apron in front of the garage should be treated with Ice Melt (generally magnesium chloride) after the storm accumulation has been plowed or blown off.

Pre-treating with salt can work against you if there is bitter cold coming on top of snow as the lowest layer melts and re-freezes into a sheet of ice...with ...more snow on top...oh joy!

bought a RAV4.

and then I moved away from ice and snow.

Thanks for the advice!

It is the way to go

Its gonna turn to vodka

Park the Jeep in 4 wheel.

some places ive lived, back east will pre-treat bridges and roads near waterways with this byproduct of beer factories. because the salt is bad for nature if they go in excess.

here is a recent article about this, tho its been used for years.

[link to www.businessinsider.com (secure)]

Cities are starting to put beet juice, beer waste, and pickle brine on icy winter roads to cut down on salt.

You better not have that jeep in predator mode.

I really should do the hummingbird dance and fuck up all of the jeeps, dodges, and fighter jets, since they won't let me have one.

For the irony.

To answer your question OP

I would put salt down after weather passes

Be careful, gonna be slick

I did this. Still ended up in the ditch next to my driveway last winter..

Nice save Durden, I will call off the tornado.

fuck would you know about radiant heat in a drive way you live in spain!

They are advertising a product that you unroll onto your sidewalk and plug it in. Comes in various lengths. Claim it only costs pennies to use a day! Melts the snow away.
