As an option, you can purchase your tarps from us with stainless steel Dee Rings.
Back in the day, when I was commuting back and forth from The University of Akron in Ohio, my spankin' cherry red Camaro would get salt all over it from the clearing of roads in the winter. If I didn't get that salt off...my car would have not lasted for as long as it did...it would have turned to dust.
Enter the new era, where salt is only one part of the equation to keeping roads snow/ice free. Now there is Magnesium Chloride...or liquid Magnesium Chloride...The liquid magnesium chloride is sprayed on dry pavement prior to the roads becoming wet and before freezing temperatures in the winter months to prevent snow and ice from adhering and bonding to the roadway.
This is great for road safety, bad for anything that is not sealed properly that comes in contact with this substance....like truck tarps, and anything hauled untarped.
Fleets that store their tarps stored wet...will find that even with galvanized Dee Rings, rust will start to appear, then will start to deteriorate the vinyl tarps by becoming rust-stained and brittle.
Hauling re-bar? Typically a non-tarped item, suddenly has to be tarped to keep this chemical from touching it...call us, we'll help you determine what you need.
In the South...not so much a problem, but for the folks dealing with this in the winter monthly...you need some help, and we have the solution.
Have a safe driving day,
Harp's Tarps
