HOT ITEM OF THE MONTH
Don't wait until it's too late, have some ICE NO MOR on hand for that first snow fall.
10LB Bag
12LB Jug
20LB Bag
50LB Bag
There is always a need for an all in one ice melter and ICE NO MOR with AMC, the catalyst that ignites melting power, is just that blend. ICE NO MOR is tough on ice, but gentle to your surroundings. It is specifically formulated for high performance melting, and will eliminate the worst ice and snow quickly and to temperatures as low as -5 degrees. At the same time, ICE NO MOR’S 4-ingredient blend is safe to concrete and gentle to surrounding vegetation when used as directed. AMC, the catalyst that ignites melting power, and calcium chloride, ans magnesium chloride combine to make ICE NO MOR an extremely fast and effective de-icing product. Don’t worry about a mess; ICE NO MOR works so quickly that it leaves no chalky residue to track indoors, which can potentially cause damage to carpets and flooring. When it is all said and done, ICE NO MOR with AMC provides everything you need from a de-icer – Speed, Safety, and Effectiveness!
Available at your local Ace Hardware.
