Much like sand blasting, dry-ice blasting uses a pressurized airstream to force tiny particles toward a surface. However, instead of sand, CO2 is used. This method, unlike sand blasting, is non-abrasive, and will NOT damage the surface being cleaned or prepped. There are several benefits to using dry-ice over traditional mediums such as sand.

Dry-ice blasting:

• Is non-abrasive, non-flammable, and non-conductive
• Contains no secondary contaminants and is environmentally friendly – minimal post project clean-up!
• Is approved for use in areas where food is produced
• Eliminates the need to disassemble parts - most items can be cleaned in place
  
• Can be used on electrical panels, without powering off
  
• Is pressure adjustable - can be gentle or rough
