Frequently Asked Questions
How does Snow in Seconds™ work?
The secret is Snow in Seconds™ synthetic polymer with super-absorbing "tiny sponge" properties. Each grain of powder will instantly absorb 100 times its size in water. Making realistic fluffy white snow, without the mess.
Impostors - Beware
Beware of impostors, Snow in Seconds™ (Federal Trademark Registration #77572110) is the only instant snow that grows 100 times its size in just seconds with NO stirring, and will NOT turn into a gel like other brands. Other brands try to sell the same substance in baby diapers as instant snow, beware of these rip off sites. We have painstakingly refined our powder to produce only super real looking artificial snow. Don't let the scientist sites fool you with sticky gross gel.How Long Does the Snow Last?
Once you add water Snow in Seconds™ will last for days before starting to shrink (evaporate) at this time you can simple add more water and fluff the snow to re-grow it or let it continue to dry up back into the powder form. You can store the powder and re-use it at any time.
Does it stay cold?
Yes, amazingly the process of evaporation constantly cools the snow, it also helps to use cold water, and you can even put the snow in the freezer to make snow balls.
Is the snow Non-Toxic?
Yes it is non-toxic, Snow in Seconds™ is safe for kids and animals. However do take every possible measure to limit any intact of the snow, or powder as a precaution.
How large of an area will it cover?
Snow in Seconds™ powder expands 100 times its size when you add water so a little bit will go a long way. We measure the volume of snow a package will make in gallons. To figure out how much you need simply measure the area and determine how deep you would like the snow. For example if you need to cover a 2ft x 5ft area 2in deep that would be 1.6 cubic feet (2x5x.1666), when converted to gallons you find out you need about 12 Gallons to fill that area. You can use the same method to determine how much area each package will cover at the depth you want.
How do you clean up the snow?
Snow in Seconds™ is easy to clean. Just sweep or vacuum the snow from any surface and place in the trash. Snow in Seconds™ is environmental friendly, safe, and non-toxic. Do Not wash Snow in Seconds™ down the sink, it will slow your drain. Do not use Snow in Seconds™ on untreated wood, the wood will absorb water from the snow. Snow in Seconds™ is slippery, use great care if sprinkling on any walking surface.
