Key points

  • Nonstick sprays prevent wet and powdery snow from clogging snow blower chutes.
  • DuPont Snow & Ice Repellent was rated the top overall choice for quick-drying, long-lasting performance.
  • Liquid Wrench silicone spray provides an effective moisture barrier and double as a general household lubricant.

Dealing with a clogged snow blower chute during a heavy storm can turn a quick driveway clearing into a frustrating ordeal. Applying a specialized nonstick spray to your machine's auger and internal chute creates a slippery protective barrier that prevents both powdery and wet snow from sticking.

To use these treatments effectively, start by thoroughly wiping down your snow blower's metal, plastic, or rubber surfaces until they are completely dry. Apply a consistent coating of your chosen lubricant—such as the top-rated DuPont Snow & Ice Repellent or Liquid Wrench silicone spray—and allow it to cure for about 10 to 15 minutes before operating the machine. Prices and specific formulas vary depending on whether you need a heavy silicone base or a ceramic dry-film lubricant.

Always apply aerosol lubricants outdoors or in a well-ventilated garage, and make sure the snow blower engine is turned off and cooled down before maintenance.
