A New Non-Toxic De-Icing Liquid
by Justin Thomas, Virginia on 11.22.05
Most de-icing products contain toxic ingredients like glycol or corrosive salts. Now a company called Orison Marketing has released a 100% bio-based product called IceClear+. This liquid prevents ice from bonding to concrete, and helps removal of ice and snow from driveways and walkways. Orison also offers a wide range of similar products like bio-based de-greasers and lubricants. Orison Marketing via ThomasNet


















I have an easier, cheaper, "greener" solution: mix ~1 tablespoon of rubbing alcohol, 1 Liter of water, and a bit of dish soap. The alcohol is the "de-icing" part of the solution: use more for more rapid deicing. Too much alcohol can cause paint loss on your car's hood, so don't overdo it.
