I have considered it, but even if you get your own machine I think the main issue is the pelleted dry ice is so expensive it really makes the whole exercise too costly to justify for essentially a good clean.

Coverage and how to read this overview

Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.

POST 1 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

Has anyone had their car dry ice cleaned? Thoughts if so? Any recommendations for the Brisbane area? I can’t find any.

POST 3Original post

I would love to get this done to my 944, damn thing would come up like new

I wish I had access to one too.

POST 5Original post

Seems to work well.  Harry Metcalfe once used it on one of his engines.  I think it was when the Lambo was with Iain Tyrrell for a rebuild.

POST 6Original post

When I was living in Europe, I had my 964 RS ice blasted. Came up a treat. Almost like brand new. Here are some photos of the before and after. The after shots were taken before the "golden grease" was reapplied to the relevant areas as per the factory. Unfortunately, I don't know anybody locally that I could recommend.

POST 9Original post

I would love to do this to my GT3 but unfortunately no one in Adelaide (that I know of) has invested in the machinery as of yet. Does anyone know what this type of work typically costs?

I also understand it's rather expensive. I have heard reports of costs being approximately $1500 for an engine Dry Ice clean, and approximately $3000 for a full car underbody Dry Ice detail including all suspension, engine etc. Ymmv.

POST 12 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

I have found someone in Brissy, $600 wheel arches and underbody.

Hhmmm. Seems the Brisbane guys haven't heard about the pricing down South yet. You better get in quick.

POST 16Original post

There used to be a guy here in Adelaide about 10 years ago and when I rang him he said he sold his equipment to someone interstate. He said it just wasn't profitable enough to make it a stand alone business because of the cost of the dry ice and the availability of the ice. From memory he said he used to charge around $1k for the engine and under the body. I would love to get mine done but yeah I reckon there would be a very limited market for it and I'm certainly not driving interstate to get it done because you know Murphy's law, it will rain on the trip home and there will be road works that you have to drive through dirt as part of the detour and will undo all that good work.

POST 17 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

I’m looking to book mine in Nov, booking are tight. I just want the years of grim & oil removed to hopefully prolong its life. Will try to get some before and after.

There was/is a guy down south (McLaren vale/Willunga area I think) who was doing mobile vapour blasting. Maybe that could work, or he may know someone who does the dry ice treatment? Will try n find his number

In all honestly I think once it’s done, it will be much easier to maintain if you come across the odd shower here or there. The issue in my case is the cosmoline needs to be taken off in order to make the occasional underbody wash even worthwhile. My cup car has no cosmoline and every so often I get it up on the stands and it comes up like new with minimal effort.
