auger and impeller protection
Original Message Jan 22, 2009 10:12 pm

What would be good to spray on the auger and impeller to prevent rust.DuPont has a product called Teflon snow and ice repellant .Would that or one of their other products be ok?

Trying to prevent rust on the augers and impeller is a lost cause. Get used to it being there. If you're that concerned, you could repaint them at the end of the season with a resilient epoxy paint.

The only way to prevent rust on the impeller us almost impossible like Borat said, well you can after each use put a giant heat fan blower to dry the impeller but we dont have to go crazy about the rust on that part...
