Revolutionizing Automotive Restoration with Dry Ice Undercarriage Cleaning

Introduction

Dry ice undercarriage cleaning is transforming automotive restoration. Traditional methods like pressure washing or chemical cleaning often damage parts. The Aiolith AI30 Dry Ice Blaster offers a safer, faster, and eco-friendly alternative.

This advanced technology removes grime, rust, and oil without abrasives. Let's explore why it's the best choice for undercarriage cleaning and more.


What is Dry Ice Blasting?

Dry ice blasting uses solid CO₂ pellets propelled at high speeds. It cleans without water, chemicals, or secondary waste.

How It Works for Undercarriage Cleaning

  1. Pellet Acceleration - Compressed air shoots dry ice at supersonic speeds
  2. Thermal Shock - The extreme cold (-78.5°C) loosens grime and rust
  3. Sublimation - Dry ice turns to gas, lifting contaminants away

Benefits:

  • No water - Prevents electrical damage
  • No abrasives - Protects metal surfaces
  • Eco-friendly - Zero toxic waste
