   Hey Brian,

   Don't know about the ACQ, but salt couldn't be good for the hardware.  This is from the Weatherbest site:

   How do I treat ice and snow on my LP WeatherBest deck?

   Use a shovel (without a metal edge) to remove ice and snow from your deck. Calcium chloride or rock salt may cause stains on the deck surface and is not recommended.

   I hear you.   Is the deck on a job or at your house?

   Starting to snow here in Waltham.

   Another MA guy, huh?  Cool.

   The one I'm actually asking about is one of the Weatherbest decks at my house.  My wife stepped out onto the front porch this morning and took a ride down to the granite step via her azz.  She's all right, but with my brain, I'm immediately thinking delivery people and liability.  It just looked wet, but it was slick as can be.... the porch I mean.

   Snowing here in Stow too.  Where's this wind they're saying is gonna be blowing over my frame in Newton?View Image
