Frequently Asked Questions

Dry ice cleaning (also known as dry ice blasting) uses small CO₂ pellets propelled at high speed to safely remove grime, oil, and surface rust.
When the pellets hit the surface, they instantly turn from solid to gas, lifting away contaminants without using water or chemicals.
It’s completely safe for delicate vehicle components and leaves no residue.

Absolutely. Dry ice cleaning is non-abrasive and non-conductive, meaning it’s safe for paintwork, electrical connections, sensors, and wiring.
At AutoBlastNI, we specialise in automotive surfaces so every process is tuned for precision and safety.

We offer cleaning for:

  • Full chassis and underbody
  • Engine bay
  • Wheel arches and alloys
  • Suspension, subframes, and drivetrain components

Our Platinum Package combines all of these with a full Lanoguard protection coating for maximum preservation.

Lanoguard is a premium, natural protective coating that prevents rust and corrosion for up to 12 months.
It forms a durable, water-repellent layer that protects your chassis and metal components from salt, dirt, and moisture.
We recommend applying it immediately after a full dry ice clean for best results, then reapplying annually for continuous protection.
💷 Full Lanoguard application: £195
