 How to apply Calcium Chloride to 600 of gravel road

As strictly a sdust suppressant you can get away with as little as 2 pounds per square yard.

If you want to solidify and make a more permanent treatment, you should go to at least 4 pounds per square yard. You may however wish to do this just after a good rain when the ground is well saturated, otherwise you need to find a way to get at least 4" of penetration to be effective.

Best of luck.

Thanks Murf.

I would consider doing more than 2 pounds per square yard of the flake so that I could solidify the surface but the county comes along with their road grader and would undo the work!

As solely a dust suppressant, how much liquid do you apply? It seems like I could be more accurate with the distribution of the liquid especially if there is any kind of wind blowing.

 How to apply Calcium Chloride to 600 of gravel road

I was at Menards (big box home improvement center) and they had various ice melt products. Some of them were pellets that contained Calcium Chloride but they also had Potassium Chloride, Magnesium Chloride, and/or Sodium Chloride. But it didn't say how much of each. Does anyone know if these ice melt products that contain some Calcium Chloride will work as a dust suppressant?

Are the Calcium Chloride dust suppressants that you use 100% CaCl?

Thank you.
