How are you using it or them?

Bill Holvig: We're injecting the salt. We have several trucks that we can inject it into the salt. Um, we also mix it ourselves with the salt, and we have a separate bay that we store it, and, the trucks that we, I have no injection, we just put it on the top when it's when it's cold, so it trickles down through. And go through the sand and we're getting very good results.

Could you describe your overall experience with ProMelt winter liquids?

Bill Holvig: One go. We've used the Pro Melt for the past 6 years, and we get great results.

If we do, it dissolves the hard pack. And I'm impressed with the product. I don't buy anything that doesn't work. This product works. And I am impressed by it.
