Hello im sorry to bring up the Calcium Chloride again but last week I was in Michigan last week on vacation and picked up some Qik Joe Ice Melt from Ace HWD becuase they had no Dow Flake. Anyway I got the MSDS sheet from the makers this is what it says.

Calcium Chloride - 90-92%
Sodium Chloride - 1-2%
Posassium Chloride - 2-3%

The Chemical name is PellaDow it looks JUST like turbo calcium except the pellots are bigger.

Here is the MSDS sheet let me know what you think. Thanks

My understanding is that Peladow is suitable, since it is just a dehydrated form of the Dowflake. With that material, just use 10% less than my recipes call for with the Dowflake.
