if a snowmobile with metal skis would sit for a even a short period of time on wet snow it would often 'stick' to the snow

My skidsteer froze to the ground once, was sitting in mud, then froze overnight. No worky.

That must have been interesting to free up.

I wonder if some of these newer high tech car waxes would help...🤔

 

I worked at the local grain elevator all through high school and famers would use johnson floor wax on the floor of the grain truck to aid unloading and it really worked well!!

I sprayed my single stage plastic snowblower with Pledge when I got it out a few months ago.

I've used it a couple times and had no clogging issues I've had in the past.

I just threw out a monster can of Pam, my wife bought a 2 pack at Sams and we use like 1/2 can a year, I should

have kept it for this purpose

My new to me Bolens blade was AWFUL!  I sanded it and rubbed Fluid Film over it.  Much better!  Not claiming that it worked any better than any other product but it was barely usable before and now snow slides off.  Certainly the sanding of flaking paint and rust helped too!  Maybe that was the most helpful!
