Dry Ice Blasting
Removing old paint, metal corrosion and organic bottom deposits is a very large time consumer in all kinds of construction and
maintenance. I love sand blasting as a process, but there are significant downsides to this. One is the mess it creates and another is its lack of discrimination on what it removes and what it leaves behind. Does anyone have any experience with Dry Ice blasting. The advertising of this makes all kinds of claims. Is it as good as it is advertised? Steve |

Steve It was absolutely fantastic for cleaning built up mold release from S-Rim molds. Pretty easy on painted surfaces too. Don't get too close to membrane keypads or instrument faces though.
