Abstract: This invention relates to a method of resurfacing an ice surface to reduce friction between the ice and an object gliding on the ice surface. The steps comprise mixing an effective amount of lubricant with water, coating the ice surface with the mixture, and allowing the mixture to freeze to form a new ice surface. In particular, the lubricant is derived from siloxane. In the preferred embodiment, the lubricant is a composition derived from polydimethysiloxane and copolyolamine. In the preferred embodiment, the ratio of water mixed with the lubricant is 300:1. This invention also provides for the use of the composition as an agent to reduce friction between an ice surface and an object gliding on the ice surface. In particular, an effective amount of the composition is mixed with water prior to applying the mixture to a surface upon which the ice surface is to form.
