What is ICE B’Gone Hot Brine?
ICE B’Gone Hot Brine is a highly effective liquid anti-icing and deicing agent made from a patented blend of magnesium chloride combined with an agricultural by-product of the distilling process (i.e. grain and/or sugar based) and is protected under U.S. patent #4,676,918. No other liquid anti-icing and deicing can make this claim.
ICE B’Gone Hot Brine is non-toxic, bio-degradable and has a corrosion index lower than distilled water. ICE B’Gone Hot Brine can be applied directly to paved surfaces in advance of a winter storm, or can be sprayed onto regular rock salt, transforming it into ICE B’Gone Magic Salt, a highly effective ice melting product.
ICE B’Gone Magic Salt is regular rock salt that has been treated with the liquid ICE B’Gone Hot Brine anti-icing and deicing.
ICE B’Gone Magic Salt is safe to use on concrete, is non-corrosive, does not harm curbside grassed areas or plants, and continues to melt ice to below -35F°.
The benefits and results of treating your salt stockpiles or your sand/salt stockpiles with ICE B’Gone Hot Brine are amazing.
Features and Benefits of ICE B’Gone Hot Brine™
ICE B’Gone Hot Brine is a proprietary formula of magnesium chloride combined with an agricultural by-product of the distilling process (i.e. grain and/or sugar based) and is protected under U.S. patent #4,676,918. No other liquid ice melter can make this claim.
ICE B’Gone Hot Brine can be applied directly to paved surfaces in advance of a winter storm and the following results will occur:
- Black ice is eliminated.
- Because of its residual effect, snow and ice will not bond to paved surfaces.
- It melts faster.
- It works longer.
- It is environmentally friendlier.
- It is less corrosive than distilled water.
- It is DEC approved.
- It is safe for concrete parking structures.
- It even neutralizes rust!
ICE B’Gone Hot Brine saves money, time and labor.
Using Chemicals on Ice and Snow
| Temp (°F) | Lb. of salt needed to melt12705 lb. water | Lb. of ice melted per lb. of salt in 1 hour (SHRP H 332) | Total Lb. of ice melted in 1 hour | % of ice melted in 1 hour |
| 30 | 254 | 33.6* (est.) | 8538 | 67% |

Note: This chart is for road salt. The numbers will be different for other de-icing chemicals, but the process will be the same. With all de-icers, the performance will diminish as temperatures fall.
Designed for the Environment:
The maker of ICE B’Gone Hot Brine (Sears Ecological Applications Company) has earned the “Designed for the Environment” recognition from the EPA. They are the only roadway de-icer in the USA to be granted this designation.
