Default Dry ice cleaning
I recently had my latest project dry ice cleaned . I think it came out great. The cosmoline (which I hate) did a great job of preserving the car
Hard to believe it's 31 years young

Looks great. I hope that one day these machines become more affordable because I would love to have one in my garage.

The dry ice cleanup is amazing.

as far as affordable, BaT just sold a tip cab with 183k miles for $47k. The interior looked like it was bringing the BP oil spill cleanup crew home.

Looks pretty.

How involved of a process is this (time, prep, cost)? Those results are outstanding!

I did dry ice cleaning about year ago. It was basically 100€/h. Team came to my garage with devices and my car was standing on 2-post lift without wheels.

It looks great
I am preparing for mine to be partly dry ice cleaned.
100€ is a bargain, I was quoted 200€ per hours .

For 200€ per hour couldn't you save some money by hiring a lawyer to do it with a toothbrush?
