"Does Snowcote cause adverse handling characteristics, once the snow
/ ice has gone?"
..........As this is apparently a derivative of the sugar industry,
is the road surface left with a slippery substance on it
once it has served its purpose in the de-icing realm?
#1 does anyone have any contacts for the manufacturers?
#2 any published evidence suggesting its use has only positive
benefits? [ie. has the effect of any residual deposit(s) been studied?]
My concern lies with motorbikers who have the worst deal when any
surface characteristic changes :(
