CO2 cleaning engine bay and underbody

I like when things are clean. That is expensive to do (and hard to find in my area...) but it works quite well.

I've been searching since I saw this. Really amazing. What prep work, such as removing and covering parts and painted surfaces are needed? Any downside or risks to doing this? Can it screw up gaskets, electrical or rubber parts?

Thanks!

Don

I was beside the guys who did the work. I stayed there the whole time. I believe you need to have an experimented operator to prevent ruining some plastic parts (you adjust the pressure on the machine). Only casualty that had occured was the green sticker on the right. I would do it now, I would remove the airbox and as many intake parts as possible to help get a deeper clean behind this airbox. This process is amazing and does not damage electrical connectors or such other delicate tiny things.

Wonder if any detail shops in NJ use this? If you know of one please PM me or post.

Cheers.
