Snow buildup in the wheel wells

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?

in the last 7 years I have owned:
2005 Toyota Corolla, Toyota Yaris (2007, 2014)
2009 Corolla, 2012 Hyundai Accent
2012 Hyundai Veloster
2012 Fiat 500

they have all become equally embedded with snow/ice. small cars have little space in the wheel well. as others have said, it needs to be taken care of after each drive when driving in enough snow that it collects. if this isn't done it will harden and become tough to manage.
