I hope the folks you knew used calcium chloride and not calcium! The problem with using calcium chloride is it's very corrosive, so a small leak will rust through a rim before long.

I have no idea what kind of calcium they used I only heard them talk about it. Alcohol? That's a hell of a waste of good moonshine.
I know about the type of calcium they used on 1/4 mile dirt tracks to keep down the dust. The stuff used to corrode the hell out of the magnesium wheels on my dad's V-8 Ford powered midget race car.
