looking locally for MagFlake

magnesium chloride

if you see this anywhere in Rochester please let me know!

I'm also interested in finding Peladow calcium chloride pellets locally.

I had quite a time finding it in va. should be more readily avail to you. I found two sources here...one was a chemical co. the other was a local hardware store,they got it from their landscaping distributor.good luck.

Give your Agways a call. If you're in Manor give the Liberty Agway a call; my dowflake came from the garden shop next door to the pet shop.

Also try your local "Do It Best" home center or a ''feed and tack' store. Got mine at my local Do It Best in Waverly, NY.

 

[magdelan]

does it have to be Mag Flake or Peladow? Or can it just be Calcium Chloride?

 

[Gary Majchrzak]

does it have to be Mag Flake or Peladow?

I only want to use brands that have few (if any) impurities.

I am in the same boat as you gary I am thinking about making my own 2 part but cant find the stuff I need anywhere. I may just get a bunch from brs supply if you want to go in on some

OR...jump on the BRS group order and get straight up CaCl. I've had a one gallon bucket for well over a year and I'm not even half through it.

Gary, did you end up finding mag flake locally?

 

[Gary Majchrzak]

no.

I found another brand of magnesium chloride flake at Tractor Supply in Brockport but I would still be interested in purchasing the MagFlake (Dead Sea Works) brand.

 

[Willistein]

Yeah, I've been keeping my eye out for ice melt at all the stores. Some of them really don't even label what they're made of. What are you using for CaCl2?

 

[Gary Majchrzak]

What are you using for CaCl2?

Prestone Driveway Heat.

Calcium chloride icemelters are readily available- it's much more difficult locating magnesium chloride ice melters and the sales/support/info network for the MagFlake brand should be ashamed of themselves.
