I use table salt on my steps. I keep a container of salt near the front door to just take out & sprinkle as you go.

I just used plain table salt & it worked like a charm. The $ store had it 3-$1.00. I also carry a zip lock bag in my coat pocket for icy places away from home. Hope this helps.

Could you please more specific on how much Dawn and warm water is to be used? I would appreciate it. Thanks.

For icy door steps in freezing temperatures: get warm water and
put Dawn dishwashing liquid in it. Pour it all over the steps. They won't refreeze. (wish I had known this for the last 10 years!)
