What Is Ice Blasting

Ice blasting (also known as dry ice blasting) is an advanced cleaning method that uses solid CO₂ pellets (dry ice) accelerated at high speed to remove dirt, grime, paint, grease, adhesives, carbon, and other contaminants from surfaces—without using water or harsh chemicals.

 

Unlike traditional sandblasting or chemical cleaning, ice blasting is non-abrasive, environmentally friendly, and leaves no secondary waste—the dry ice simply sublimates (turns from solid to gas) upon impact.

Why Ice Blasting Is A Game changer In the Automotive Industry

Non-Damaging Precision Cleaning

Ice blasting is tough on grime but gentle on surfaces. Whether it’s engine bays, undercarriages, wheel arches, or classic car restorations, it cleans without scratching, warping, or removing paint on delicate areas.

No Water, No Mess

Because dry ice evaporates on contact, there’s no moisture, no drying time, and no residue—perfect for electronics, interior detailing, and sensitive automotive components.

Environmentally Friendly

Dry ice is made from reclaimed CO₂, making it a green cleaning solution with no added chemicals, toxins, or wastewater.

Cost and Time Efficient

Ice blasting reduces labour time by cleaning hard-to-reach areas more quickly and thoroughly than manual methods or steam cleaning.
