Dry Ice Blasting My Z 28 Before and After
 
27 Attachment(s)
After all my research, I finally got my z dry ice blasted. The Zebart under coating was all ways a concern on the orginality. We did it inside my shop and I would not advise it !!!!!!! What a mess !!!!! Here are some before and after pics. As you all can see it is a unmolested 54,000 mile car. Thanks Joe PS car still for sale !

Fantastic! Your car was heavily undercoated and looks excellent. Well worth it ... Congratulations!

Dry Ice blasting
 
Where did you obtain the equipment?

That looks great!! Thanks for posting the pics. I was wondering how good it would do on undercoating.

Much better, that’s a great result.

How many hours did it take to do it?

Was the mess mixed with water? Or was it dry?

Turned out pretty nice … If it was Ziebarted did they put the plugs in the door jambs & doors to treat the hidden areas?

Dry Ice Blasting uses frozen CO2 (carbon dioxide). No water. No residue from the Dry Ice.

Looks like it worked. Nice car.

Gary Riley at Level One Restoration's in Colorado is doing dry ice blasting on a car for me this week. I will post pics.

How about a video?

I've got a couple of cars that I'd like to have this done to. I know there is a local shop that has one of these blasters. I'd like to know how you can prevent the mess, or is it just going to be nasty no matter what?

STEFS 12-13-2021 10:03 PM

Just pretty messy but really depends on how bad the car is. My guy said this was the worst car he has done. But the Zebart really keeper all the original parts in tac

I have a 1971 Camaro with undercoating and a lot of oil mess from being driven with a leaking rear main seal. There is a European car repair shop about 6 miles from me that offers this service. It is $300 an hour with a 4-hour minimum. After seeing this I think (for me) it would be worth it, once I get it drivable again.

Thank you, the pictures were very helpful.

Great car! Congratulations! Amazing preservation. We dry ice blasted a very clean low mileage 1987 Porsche Carrera, turned out looking brand new!
