SNOW PLOW COATING
Product # 385
Helps remove snow with less effort
This coating deposits a thin, slippery layer of silicone that reduces friction on plow blades, shovels and truck beds
to provide more efficient plowing. It also protects metal surfaces from rust and corrosion and will not wash off
when cleaned after use.
