Well, I’ll state my solution to the ice bergs, and (in my opinion) inferior scratchers.
My wife had ordered some non stick stuff to try and keep deck clean underneath on lawnmower. Stuffs called TITESEAL, I never tried it cause didn’t think it help.
Reading can it said also good for keeping snow from sticking to snowblowers. Lightbulb moment, something about ceramic coating, bla bla bla. Sprayed under tunnel and holyshit it helped a lot.
Scratchers, I make my own. The cable ones I couldn’t get a season out of em before cable broke. I’ve drug mine for two seasons now, never putting em up, still going strong. Forgive me if this is against some rule, but I do sell em, half price and last twice as long.
