This blog will talk about a “JAG restoration project”, or more specifically, about cleaning the interior of a 65-year-old car using the latest dry ice and dry snow blasting/cleaning technologies.

An important research into an alternative, environmentally non-invasive surface cleaning process for various metals was conducted as a collaborative effort between the Jožef Stefan Institute, Dolenjske Toplice-based company FerroČrtalič, whose development has been focusing on ecological technological solutions in the field of surface treatment technology for as many as 57 years, and the Joanneum Research Institute from Austria. The aim of the research was to determine the effects of the environmentally friendly dry ice cleaning...

Today I would like to talk about the difference between dry ice and dry snow particles. I am going to compare the pellets’ size and what they are used for. At the end of this article you will become a master of dry ice/snow particle sizes!
