Application Guidelines

For Ice Prevention:

  • 15 ml per square metre

For Clearing Established Ice:

  • 30 ml per square metre and repeat until ice is controlled
  • To prevent ice forming, Isoway can be applied before a frost. This will prevent ice formation for 24-48 hours unless washed from the treated surface.
  • Pour straight from the jug or drum into your choice of applicator.
  • For small areas the most convenient way is via a watering can, using a fine hose.
  • For larger areas application by standard sprayer is ideal, from simple hand-pumped garden sprayers to more sophisticated ‘backpack’ sprayers with hand held booms.
