snow salting Not all road salt is the same quality. For one thing, road salt greatly varies in terms of grain size, which may have a huge impact on the time it takes to clear snow from your premises. Road salt made up of unduly small salt grains will be fast-working, yet it will also quickly lose its effect. In that case, you are left with an unpleasant unmelted sludge of snow and ice. Use salt grains that are too coarse and it will take longer for the snow to melt. On the plus side, your premises will remain ice-free for longer. Quality road salt, such as MOSES ROAD SALT, has the perfect mix of fine and coarse grains, making sure your driveway and premises are quickly de-iced for longer.
