Seems like a good idea. But for now it's a broom tied to the end of a pipe for me.

Problem you may need to warm the dish before you can apply anything. You can also wash the dish. Dirt and grime will give snow/ice something to grip. Remove the dirt and then apply a coating.
Good luck..
When it's snowy,spray it with a light coat of WD40. I found it works OK most of the time except in freezing rain. Really,that's the downside of a satellite dish. They're useless in crappy weather.
I use SC1 on my snowblower and nothing sticks to it.
Never needed it on my dish, but that is what I would use if needed.
Its what we use on ATVs to keep the mud from sticking inside fender wells.
Use a hammer. lol
Before I got rid of it in favor of an indoor antenna I considered simply attaching a magnetic block engine heater in the 200 watt range on the back side of the dish and plugged into a long extension cord. Simply plug into an outlet a few times in the winter as the weather dictates.
This one goes on sale once in a while at Princess Auto.
