Will attract dirt. No go.

Not feasible for the location and no power at the sheds.

No way in hell I would use any kind of corrosive de-icer on a steel shed. That's just asking for problems.

Good info, thank you! I figured if nothing else, a person could run a kerosene heater in there and at least get the roof warmed up some... One open side on the shed would keep it from warming up very easily though.

This would help, but be unbearable in the summer.

>Get a snow rake. But if the pitch as low as hell it just isnt gonna shed.

I am going to make a snow rake for my shop so I am more prepared the next time it happens. One of those that has the plastic slide that lets the snow slide off. The haysheds are 20'-22 tall at the eave though, so I cannot snow rake from the ground and am apprehensive to get on the roof when it's blizzard like conditions. Hell I even welded a 20' long pipe to my loader bucket to knock some snow off the eave where the gutters were hanging it up. I couldn't get enough of an angle to get up on the roof at all even with that. That is why I wanted to try and spray a wax or coating on there to help it shed more easily. I am comfortable going up there in nice weather when it is dry.

Will look into it thanks!

>Clearly WD40. It's even in the name, Water Displacer, and you clearly want to displace frozen water.
>Sheesh, use your neuron someday.
Haha. Thanks for the laugh.

What would you spray on a metal roof to help it shed snow more easily?
