People living in Western countries are sick of getting heavy snow regularly in winters. Though they ask somebody or clean all snow by themselves, that shovel does not help that much.
We see every time we plow snow, the ice gets stick to snow, this making it worse than ever. So, for that matter, we are here to help you by giving you handy hacks which will make your work easy and smooth. So, let us not waste any minute and hop onto the main content!
DuPont Teflon and Ice Repellent
There are many ice-proof sprays/foam available in the market, but taking out one of all of them, would make you a bit confused. So, here is the best product to keep the snow from your shovel or blower, i.e., DuPont snow & Ice Repellent foam which will not stick to your tool and allow it to work smoothly. You can apply it with your hands (wearing gloves) by rubbing it all over the equipment. It is one of the finest foams which is used worldwide. So, try using it once and trust me, you are going to like it.

Vegetable Oil
Using vegetable oil or even cooking spray would be the best option if you are in a hurry. It is such a convenient hack that will protect your tool from working sleekly and evenly. For applying this, pour some cooking oil in a small bowl and give a good coating to your snow tool, either with the help of a brush, or you can even use cotton or hosiery cloth to make it steadier. If it is a spray, it can be applied like regular sprays. It is the easiest solution; so, when you are running out of time, use this hack!
WD-40
Pidilite has turned up with an amazing product called WD-40, which truly works like magic. It is a wonderful lubricant that comes as a sprayer bottle. WD-40 is used by many professionals for different uses. You can say that this is a multipurpose liquid which is best for making the tools slippery and free from snow buildup. Similar to vegetable oil, you can spray some of it on a piece of cotton or hosiery cloth and apply it thoroughly. For every rusty thing, it is the perfect product.

Candle and Furniture Wax
Just like cooking oil, candle or furniture wax can also be used to have a proper and even coating. To use it as snowproof, take a candle, melt it on a low flame, and quickly apply it on the shovel or blower before it cools down. You can also use a candle and directly rub it on the tool, and it would be more convenient and inexpensive to use. For an alternative, you can also use furniture wax/polish to get off the snow. So, when you are lazy to buy anything, candle/furniture wax is your companion.
Petroleum Jelly
Rubbing petroleum jelly on the equipment can also prevent snow from sticking. Be it is anything, but we particularly will suggest a good and thick petroleum jelly. Vaseline could be one of them, as it contains heavy and sticky properties, which will make your work effortless. Take Vaseline on your two fingers (pointer and middle) and apply it to the tool by making zig-zag patterns. Coat it properly till it gets shiny. Just like wax, petroleum jelly is also easy to buy from any nearby shop or store. Please keep it in your pocket when you step out to work.

Paint
To prevent snow from getting stick to the shovel or any other tool similar to that, a good paint or varnish is a must. You can either ruse container paint or spray paint. It hardly matters. Now, apply the paint and keep it in the sun to let it dry. It might take some time to dry off, but you will certainly get good results in your work. Paints can be used for both things, i.e., snowplow vs. snow-blower as it will help you to get rid of the snow and will also shine like brand new equipment.
