DO NOT USE
Note: The FAA and Transport Canada Holdover Time documents, as well as
the SAE ARP4737 Deicing Methods document, all describe the use of a 10°C
(18°F) Freezing Point Buffer below the Outside Air Temperature (OAT) when
using SAE Type I deicing fluid in a single step process.
Consult your approved Winter Operation’s manual for proper use of this fluid.
