Snow buildup in the wheel wells

Even some SUVs I have seen this season have build up issues occurring. A lot of it I am gathering is also from the chemicals that they use on the roads.

Every other car I've owned I could just kick it off. This one the clearance is so small I can't get near it. Sometimes when I get home I have to pry it off, move the car a foot, pry it out the other way, move up a foot and pry again.

I've never seen anything this bad. I've got friends with fit, accents, whatever. The buildup even goes all the way around.

Anyone try the teflon snow repellant spray?
