BREAK UP is a highly concentrated antifreeze formulation designed to prevent water, ice, snow, sleet, or moisture from contacting road salt (calcium chloride) which absorbs moisture and subsequently hardens. This hardening prevents the road salt from freely flowing into the spreader for broadcasting upon the roadway. As absorption increases, the upper few feet of the bed load hardens and requires frequent and costly return trips to the shop to break up the hardened mass. BREAK UP, with its penetrants, will coat the road salt pellets to a depth sufficient to prevent hardening and allows for the continued spreading of the rock salt without interruption.
