Default Splitting Granite

Hi All,

Not sure which forum to post this on ... but I have an outcropping of
ledge in my yard that I would like to reduce in size. I'm told there is a
fluid that can be used, other than water, to pour into drilled holes and let
mother nature take over during the winter months to freeze it, and
ultimately break/split/crack the ledge that is too close to my barn to
blast. Does anybody know of what I'm talking about?


Water has been used in quarries almost forever.

Why would you use anything else?
