I used calcium chloride hauling gravel it would last half the day until I had to respray it then it would melt anything stuck in the trailer before I reached the pit.

Some guys swear by using vegetable oil. I mixed calcium chloride with RV antifreeze, that worked well on loads that couldn't smell. we use diesel unless the load will be sniffed. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post RSD501 Posted February 8, 2017 Popular Post Share Posted February 8, 2017 I was loading trucks the other day, and grabbed a couple quick pictures. The Bottomline truck is always kept pretty clean. And my RW was on the run too, and she still hangs in there. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Petersen still has it, but the made a water tank for their roll off truck. The B doesn't see much use these days. The old DBC pics are pretty cool, I think that was right around when the truck painted. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
