gnvqsos Posted March 23, 2013 Share Posted March 23, 2013 Ah I see why you are called Medusa now - no answer just a pillar of stone awaits Medusa was Annie Lennox's second album after leaving Your Rythmn Inks.I think this would explain the selection of a Greek thingy.

uncle eddy Posted March 23, 2013 Share Posted March 23, 2013 (edited) Grit does work when it's very cold,grit works by lowering the freezing temperature of water,thus thawing the ice derrrrrr!!!! Fool and if the temperature falls below that then it wont work, the salt that is, but the grit side of things will work at any temp...its for grip, note- calcium chloride is sometimes added to grit, this allowes it to work at very low temps.

It's rock salt that is put down. Not "grit" as the public would generally perceive it. The rock salt entirely dissolves. He's not foolish at all in that sense. Whether or not he's foolish in any other way I couldn't say, I don't know him. Do you? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Do you? and grit refers to size of the peices i suppose, the clue is in the name..Rock Salt, because it is common salt with impuritys such as rock and earth other wise it would be called sodium chloride.

The tiny amount of impurities has no noticeable effect on the traction of vehicles passing over it. Trust me on this, 'cos I know what I'm blathering on about.
