At another forum I go to, the consensus was that it was a scam.

This company produces some of the best "repellents" on the market today, recommended and used by landscapers here for many years.

100% satisfaction quaranteed, I will be doing some product testing for them this year in "the tundra".

Would be great for grapes and fruit trees in the early spring.

Science is not about consensus. Water freezes at 32 degrees.

...yet, it is said, that a plant with kelp meal in its root zone and foliar fed with a liquid seaweed solution throughout the season is much more likely to 'resist' and defend against the effects of those first few frosty nights. Kelp and/or seaweed (however one might call them) has been known for decades to work wonders for plant health, disease and stress defense, drought tolerance, and render an ability to defeat temperatures that teeter near 32-degrees.

I have not read the label on Freez Pruf. What's in it ? Any chance it has glycerin in the formulation ?

I saw some recently and I believe it does have glycerin in the formulation.
