Holy shit.. Amazing. Speechless. Don’t touch anything else. Just preserve and walk away. May I ask to see closeups when you have it in hand of the comfort weave and the grain on the door panels.?.

Man that ice blasting works so nice! I've gotta get that done to my Camaro sometime. Thanks for posting the pics Charlie.

Not sure if this was ever brought up or not? But can one use this dry ice blasting to strip the body of a car with bad paint? Looking at a 78 Z28 that is badly laquor cracked paint. So I could get this done?
Thanks, John

THANK YOU Lee. I wonder how this compares to Soda and Walnut shells for removing exterior body paint?

I have a friend who has a good size environmental company. I think last time we talked about this, he had 6 machines. Might be able to get one for 3 days here and there for some shop projects. He's the type of guy that says, "buddy, just take it and only pay for consumables!"

BUT I will be 56 next month. Might be a good wage to supplement some retirement $$$ in the somewhat near future.

He's the type of guy that says, "buddy, just take it and only pay for consumables!" I watched that video and that guys probably did that 100's of times. So even if I stayed a bit futher away and took twice as long, so be it.

Keep in mind that with Dry Ice, the only thing you clean up is the blasted off paint because the Dry Ice turns to CO2 gas when it warms up. Less of a mess to clean up.
