Liquid De-Icer & Treated Salt Solutions

Two product lines. One proven formula. Everything you need to run a more efficient, more profitable winter operation.

Product 1

Ice B Gone Magic Liquid

The Original Magic Formula

Ice B Gone Magic Liquid is a Magnesium Chloride-based de-icer enhanced with the distilled byproduct of rum and vodka production — a proprietary blend developed by John Parker of Taconic Maintenance in 1994. It pre-wets treated salt so it works faster on contact and lasts longer on pavement than untreated salt, anti-ices before storms, and delivers extreme effectiveness down to -15°F — with a working range that extends all the way to -35°F.

Product Specifications

Base ChemistryMagnesium Chloride (MgCl₂)
Effective TemperatureExtreme to -15°F / Effective to -35°F
AppearanceClear to amber liquid
pH6.5 – 8.5
Specific Gravity1.28 – 1.32
Chloride Reduction35–50% vs. rock salt

Packaging & Delivery

275-gallon IBC toteStandard delivery unit for contractors and dealers
Bulk tankerAvailable for municipalities, DOTs, and high-volume dealers

Application Methods

01

Pre-Wetting

Apply at the spinner or conveyor as salt loads. Coats each granule for faster activation, longer pavement residual, less bounce, and reduced scatter. Cut application rates by 35–50%.

02

Anti-Icing

Apply to dry pavement 1–2 hours before a storm. The superior anti-bonding residual prevents ice from adhering to the surface and keeps working long after the first application — reducing post-storm salt needs by up to 75% and eliminating repeat passes.

03

Direct Liquid Application

Targeted treatment for black ice zones, bridge decks, shaded lots, and pedestrian areas. Fast-acting with no residue.

Product 2

IBG Magic Treated Salt

Pre-Wetted. Ready to Perform.

IBG Magic Treated Salt is bulk road salt pre-treated with the Ice B Gone Magic liquid formula at the time of production. Every granule arrives coated and ready — no on-site pre-wetting equipment required. Ideal for contractors who want the performance benefits of a liquid program without the added equipment investment.

DeliveryBulk by the ton

Key Benefits

No Equipment Required

Get the performance of a pre-wetted program without investing in liquid application equipment. Load and spread like standard salt.

Faster Activation

Pre-treated granules activate on contact with pavement — working faster and staying active longer than untreated salt, with no waiting for liquid to coat the salt in the field.

Lower Application Rates

Treated salt works faster on contact and lasts longer on pavement than untreated salt at the same application rate — or delivers equal performance at a lower rate.

Pet Friendly & Environmentally Responsible

IBG Magic Treated Salt uses less chloride per application than untreated rock salt — making it pet friendly, gentler on vegetation and concrete, and safer for waterways. A result your clients and their communities can feel good about.

Extends Equipment Life

Ice B Gone Magic is less corrosive than salt brine or calcium chloride alone — meaning less rust and wear on your trucks, spreaders, and plows. IBG Magic Treated Salt helps protect your equipment investment season after season.

Proven Formula

The same Magic formula that's been trusted by contractors and municipalities for 30 years — now applied at the source.

Product 3

Super Blend Brine

Ice B Gone Liquid Super Blend

Super Blend Brine is a high-performance brine solution that takes the proven Ice B Gone Magic Liquid formula and enhances it with additional performance agents — engineered for maximum anti-icing effectiveness, faster melt speeds, and an extended pavement residual that keeps working long after the first application. Ideal for contractors and municipalities demanding the highest level of winter performance.

Product Specs

Base FormulaIce B Gone Magic Liquid Enhanced
ApplicationAnti-icing, Pre-wetting, Direct Liquid
Effective TemperatureExtreme to -15°F / Effective to -35°F
Residual ActivityExtended — keeps working after first application
Salt Reduction35–50% vs. untreated salt
EquipmentStandard liquid application equipment

Key Benefits

Maximum Anti-Icing Power

Engineered for the most demanding conditions — Super Blend Brine prevents ice bonding before the storm and keeps the pavement clear longer than standard liquid programs.

Extended Pavement Residual

The enhanced formula stays active on pavement longer than standard brine, reducing the need for repeat applications and keeping your crews moving efficiently through their routes.

Faster Melt Speed

Additional performance agents accelerate the melt process on contact — clearing pavement faster and reducing the window of hazardous conditions for your clients.

Less Corrosive Than Salt Brine or Calcium Chloride

Super Blend Brine is less corrosive than salt brine or calcium chloride alone — protecting your trucks, spreaders, plows, and pavement surfaces while still delivering maximum winter performance.
