How to Snowproof With Clean Machine™
By Kyla Pehr
Jan 2, 2026
You’re shoveling snow, go to toss it aside, and it just won’t budge from your shovel. Or maybe you’re plowing, and instead of snow being thrown cleanly out the chute as you go, it clogs up and grinds everything to a halt.
These are common frustrations of winter weather. And surprisingly, they can both be solved with the same tool: Clean Machine™ with GlideOff®.
What is Clean Machine?
A new product from Good Vibrations®, Clean Machine is the ultimate treatment for keeping your equipment cleaner, safer, and running at peak performance no matter the season.
It’s a spray-on, non-stick coating that provides year-round protection for metal and plastic surfaces. It repels grass, dirt, snow, and debris to help prevent rust and corrosion, extending the life of outdoor equipment.
How does Clean Machine work on winter gear?
Clean Machine works by creating a slick surface that actively repels winter ice and snow.

Key benefits include:
- Proprietary non-stick formula: GlideOff technology delivers premium glide and performance
- Repels snow and ice: Prevents buildup in snowblower chutes and moving parts
- Reduces clumping: Stops wet snow from sticking and compacting
- Corrosion protection: Shields metal surfaces from rust caused by moisture and road salt
- Easy cleanup: Frozen gunk slides off or rinses away — no scraping required
The result is improved performance, less wear and tear, and faster post-use cleanup.
Why winter equipment needs it
Snow conditions may vary, but the problems caused by snow sticking to equipment are universal:
- Wet snow clogging snowblower chutes
- Snow adhering to shovels and plows, increasing effort exerted during tasks
- Reduced throwing distance and clearing performance
- Added strain on equipment and unsafe manual clearing

By preventing buildup before it starts, Clean Machine helps you operate equipment more smoothly and safely.
What can I use Clean Machine on?
For snowproofing and general winter weather protection, Clean Machine works best on:
- Snow blowers (chutes, augers, impellers)
- Shovels and plows
- Snowmobiles
- Collection and discharge systems
Because it’s safe to use on both metal and plastic, Clean Machine is versatile enough for nearly any outdoor power equipment you rely on in winter and beyond.
How to use Clean Machine on winter gear

Applying Clean Machine is simple. Just follow these four steps:
- Let equipment cool: Only spray on surfaces that are cool to the touch (avoid hot engines)
- Clean first: Treat a clean, dry surface for best results
- Spray evenly: Apply a smooth, even coat
- Allow to dry: Let the product set for 15-30 minutes before operating your equipment again
For maximum, non-stick performance, apply a second coat and continue to reapply as needed throughout the season.
Built to perform, no matter the season
Proudly made in the USA and formulated in St. Louis, Missouri, Clean Machine delivers durable, reliable protection for outdoor power equipment all year long.
Whether you’re mowing in the summer or clearing snow in the winter, Clean Machine will help your gear work better, last longer, and clean up faster. Shield Against Grass, Ice, Dirt & Rust™ — and take the frustration out of power equipment maintenance with Clean Machine.
