A not-so terribly dirty Volvo XC90 engine bay
The black plastic intake is obviously cleaner, but there are parts all over that look that clean up-close
Look at the copper wire windings, that black soot would not scrape off
After, those windings are looking a lot better. Also not the black piece in the middle of the alternator
Yamaha WR250F - dirt bikes get, well... dirty.
Any electrical components should avoid a lot of water and chemicals, dry ice blasting is water and chemical free
Same dirt bike lower left side, both trail dirt and some oil
Even makes the bolts shine like new
A Subaru BRZ - a daily driver, it gets normal road grime build up
A quick pass with the dry ice blaster and things are looking good
A Subaru BRZ - lots of little nooks and crannies to clean
Notice how the black metal and rubber parts look better
Did an alternator replacement for a friend, couldn't help but clean their engine bay.
I gave myself 10 minutes to see how far I could get. Pretty quick work, with amazing results. Imagine how much better this would look with another 50 minutes of work!
After the 10 minutes we cleaned a little more of the engine bay.
This was all just a really quick pass, but look at the braided lines and electrical connectors, they clean up so nice, so easily.
A close up of dry ice cleaning on the right side before the 10 minute test.
The after 10 minutes of dry ice blasting close up.
A jet was in for a 12 year inspection service and we cleaned the flap area while they were removed by the client.
Notice the underside of the wing in the top is clean as well.
A combination of anti-corrioson spray and oil / grime build up
All cleaned up
This picture is the port side wing
This is the starboard side, but same area. Just for those people that would have noticed they're opposite.
A new donut shop is getting ready to open and they used a donut maker from a shop that shut down in California. The machine wasn't cleaned and sat for a few years before they desided to put it back in service. It needed a lot of cleaning. There was grease, both food and industrial, burnt sugars (glaze) and other contaminates to remove.
Dry ice cleaning can make a food surface bacteria free and pass swab tests by the FDA & USDA.
Areas that would be difficult to reach with brushes and scrapers are no match for dry ice blasting.
dry ice cleaning can make food surfaces safe by sanitizing them and eliminating bacteria, mold, and other microorganisms. This process can help reduce the risk of foodborne illnesses like E. coli or Salmonella.
This is a combination of both soft (food grease) and hard (burnt grease)
Yes, sorry, the camera angle isn't the same, but well... you get the idea.
We actually already spent a few minutes blasting this part and then I stopped to take a picture.
Finished.
OK, this isn't the before and after I wanted, but we cleaned another Jeep and wasn't focused on picture taking.
Not even close to being finished, but heck, we didn't even know there was a part number under there!
Lower control arm of a 1997 Porsche 911, owner is selling and listing it in an auction. He knows that a clean under carriage could be fetch several thousands more.
I wasn't complete in cleaning, just taking a break, but snapped a photo so I wouldn't forget. Looks pretty nice!
Yet again, I started cleaning and them remembered to take a picture. So you can see the air pipe and part of the valve cover were already started.
Taking a break from cleaning this 1999 Jeep Wrangler, I took a picture.
Please note the condition of the window washer fluid - dry ice blasting took the yellow tint away and the plastic news almost new again.
A customer brought me the exhaust off of their Porsche. It is going to get hung on the wall in the garage.
To my surprise the metal surface actually became a little more shiny after dry ice blasting. This was a neat smaller project to do.
Requested cleaning on a V8 Carborated intake manifold. It had some hard to reach areas to clean, and they thought dry ice cleaning might be really quick and effective.
They were right! Pretty small cost for the client, they didn't get dirty, use chemicals and received a very clean part back. Even the weird water stains (upper right area of the before photo) were blasted away with ease.
Look for the video on the "home" page at the bottom. We had the opportunity to work with The Rad Factory. It was a quick turn around, but the results were still fantastic!
Yeah, you have to get in there to get all the grime off that you can!
This Ducati was going up for sale, so getting every nook and cranny cleaned was the plan. As per normal, I was focused on getting the job done and not the pictures. The bike wasn't very dirty, but needed just a little more cleaning to really look spotless.
Again, didn't plan well for the before and after shots, but the dirt that was here was like the picture to the left (before). Now, clean enough to eat off of (really, dry ice cleaning is food safe!)
A well used and loved Lotus from 1968. It's been from coast to coast and north and south I was told. It needed a little love, so we made it cleaner!
Here we go again! Poor picture planning on my part, but I think you get the idea.
Many, many miles of an oil leak pretty much coated everything underneath.
Yes, the angle is different and the lighting is better, but I can tell you it's a lot cleaner!
Window washer reservoirs and similar plastic bottles always get this aged look and weird dirt that doesn't wipe off well. (I had to zoom up on this picture as I didn't know I'd focus on the bottle).
A quick pass or two with our Karcher L2P machine and it looks much nicer!
