    Steps and entryways

    Pre-treat porch steps and entries before a storm to help keep ice from bonding.

  • Worker spreading ice melt on a storefront sidewalk

    Storefronts and lots

Choose your color

The color coating shows where you have spread. Melting works the same in every color.

Color may look different depending on lighting and surface.

Apply in 4 steps

The short version. Always follow the directions on the package.

  1. Shoveling snow off a walkway

    Clear the snow

    Shovel or plow loose snow first so the melter can reach the ice.

  2. Hand scattering ice melt on ice

    Spread thin

    Scatter a light, even layer by scoop or spreader. More is not better.

  3. Ice melt pellets boring into ice

    Let it work

    Give it a few minutes to break the bond between ice and pavement.

  4. Shoveling slush off a walkway

    Shovel the slush

    Push away the loosened slush, then sweep up leftovers once dry.

Do not use on concrete less than one year old. Follow the package directions and wipe pets' paws after walks.

How to Use CMA Blended Magnesium Chloride Ice and Snow Melt

  1. Shovel or plow loose snow first so the melter can reach the ice underneath.
  2. Spread a thin, even layer by hand scoop or with a broadcast or drop spreader. More is not better; a light, uniform coat works faster and wastes less.
  3. Give it a few minutes to break the bond between the ice and the pavement, then shovel away the loosened slush.
  4. Before a storm, pre-treat walkways and steps with a light application to help keep ice from bonding.
  5. Sweep up leftover granules once surfaces are dry so they are not tracked indoors.

Always follow the directions on the package and keep product away from children.

Questions about this product

Ask a question ›
How cold does it work?
It is made to work below 0°F. Melting slows as temperatures drop, so pre-treat before a storm in deep cold.
What is a blended ice melt?
A blend combines more than one melter. This one pairs magnesium chloride for low-temperature melting with CMA for anti-icing power that helps stop refreeze.
Is it safe for my pets?
It is formulated to be gentler on paws than traditional rock salt when used as directed. No ice melt is meant to be eaten, so wipe paws after walks and store the container out of reach.
Can I use it on new concrete?
Do not use any deicer on concrete less than one year old, or on concrete that is cracked, spalled or poorly sealed. On sound, cured concrete, apply a thin, even coat and sweep up leftovers.
How much should I use?
Follow the application rate on the package. A thin, even layer works faster and wastes less than a heavy coat.
How do I store it?
Keep it sealed in a cool, dry place. Ice melters pull moisture from the air and can clump if left open.
Which colors does it come in?
4 options: Blue, Green, Pink, Orange. The color is a coating on the granules so you can see where you have spread and avoid over-applying. The melting performance is the same whichever color you pick.
When will it ship?
In-stock orders placed before 2:00 PM Eastern on a business day ship the same day from our Williamstown, New Jersey warehouse. Orders placed after the cut-off, on weekends or on holidays ship the next business day. Tracking is emailed as soon as it leaves. The box above the Add to cart button shows the live countdown and an arrival estimate for your ZIP.
Can I buy by the pallet?
Yes. Pallets ship by LTL freight and the rate depends on your delivery address, so we quote it rather than guess. The product price is the same price everyone pays, whether you buy one pail or a pallet; only the freight is quoted. Request a freight quote and we will come back with a delivered price.
Can I pick up at the warehouse?
Yes, by arrangement at our Williamstown, New Jersey warehouse, Monday to Friday 8:00 AM to 5:00 PM and Saturday 8:00 AM to noon, Eastern. Contact us first so the warehouse can pull your order.
Can I return it?
Unused, unopened product in its original packaging can be returned within 30 days of delivery. Opened bags and pails cannot be returned. Read the full return policy.
