I find snow thrower works best when you get three inches or more of the Dry fluffy snow. Also, the deeper the snow- the better the thrower works. I prefer to use the thrower, but the blade comes out if it's wet heavy snow.
I have the inside of the housing, the auger, and the chute painted with POR-15 WhiteCote. So far, I have not had any issues with clogging. I did have some ice form under the chute today. The ice made it difficult to rotate the chute, so I sprayed some de-icer on it to free it up. This does not usually happen, but it was very cold today. It was 3F at 8:00 am when I started, and the high today was only 15F.
