correct,

It may happen if pilots dont realize that wing anti ice switch should be used as DEICE and not ANTIICE whenever airborne.
So if wing antice is used prior to entering icing conditions, upon entry,frozen particules will melt in contact with the heated surface, melt and refreeze on the back of the leading edge.
