Dry ice blasting for engine bays, undercarriages and full chassis. No water. No chemicals. No abrasion. £100 secures a date in the workshop.
Dry ice — solid CO₂ at minus seventy-eight degrees — accelerated onto a surface, sublimating on impact. The contamination lifts. The metal underneath doesn't notice.
We came to dry ice from restoration, not from cleaning. That's the reason we know what to leave alone — original underseal, factory markings, period stamps, patina that belongs there. The blast lifts what shouldn't be on the car. Nothing else.
The same sequence every job. The same notes, the same photographs, the same docket at the end. It's how we keep the workbook honest.
We look at the car or the brief and tell you what dry ice can and can't do. Honest, in writing. No survey fee for automotive bookings.
Sensitive components — distributors, breathers, fragile trim — are masked. Floor and walls of the booth dressed for capture.
Pressure and pellet size tuned to the substrate. CO₂ sublimes on impact, so nothing pools, runs, or rusts.
Before, during and after photographs. Technician's notes. A printable record card you keep with the car's history.
Solid CO₂ sublimates the instant it lands — lifting grime and letting it fall away, leaving the surface dry and untouched. Watch an engine bay come up clean.
Deposit is non-refundable but fully credited against the balance. We confirm by email within an hour during workshop hours, with a docket number to track the job against.
