[QUOTE="guywhofishes, post: 45835, member: 337"] Pro Tip #85: clean the flights really really well first before anti-ice treatment - this removes the "micro-structure" that's invisible to the eye - but that water can flow into the micro-crevices of - then freeze - helping it bond or get a foothold basically. idea is to have smoothest surface possible first. then the anti-ice sprays/waxes can form a monolayer over the surface that water can't flow through to get at the little micro-structures - so the ice can't stick if you've got a bunch of gunk, dead minnow blood/guts, flotsam, etc. forming a hilly micro-landscape then no amount of anti-ice can prevent stickage [/QUOTE]
