Lamborghini Dry Ice Blasting
Dry ice blasting and chassis protection for modern and classic Lamborghinis. Careful, non-abrasive cleaning of the underbody, chassis, engine bay and components, then protection matched to the car.

Lamborghini
Complex structures. Considered cleaning
Modern Lamborghinis combine aluminium and carbon fibre in their structures, with large mid-mounted engines, deep underfloor panels and intricate cooling paths. Classic V12s from Sant'Agata bring their own challenges: tubular frames, original finishes and decades of accumulated residue.
Dry ice blasting suits both. It is non-abrasive, so composite and painted surfaces are cleaned without being worn. It is completely dry, so no water is left in cooling ducts, connectors or seams. And there is no blasting media to migrate into places it should never be.

Chassis protection
Chassis protection for your Lamborghini
Protection applied to a clean, sound surface bonds better and lasts longer than the same product laid over road film and old underseal. Accessible surface corrosion is treated first. We hold four systems in-house and recommend by vehicle, storage and use, rather than leading with one product.
Lanoguard Clear
Lanolin-based protection with an annual top-up recommended, ideally before winter. Suited to vehicles in regular use or stored outdoors.
Bilt Hamber Dynax-UB
Wax-based protection, typically lasting 1 to 2 years before a top-up in high-wear areas. A pragmatic, proven choice for regular use.
Dinitrol Full System
Multi-year protection applied as part of a full programme, with a free inspection at 12 months. We are working towards Dinitrol approval.
IGL Aegis
Long-term protection for high-value vehicles being kept for years to come, with an annual inspection for the first 3 years.
Each system has a recommended maintenance interval. We record yours and, with your permission, remind you when it is due.
What we clean
Where a Lamborghini needs attention
Every Lamborghini is assessed individually before work begins. The process is then set around the surface, the contamination and the condition of the car in front of us.
Engine bay
Heat-bonded deposits and oil mist lifted from the engine, ancillaries and surrounding structure. Non-conductive, so it's safe to use around wiring and sensors.
Carbon and composite surfaces
Carbon fibre and composite panels cleaned with controlled pressure and pellet size. Non-abrasive, so the surface finish is preserved.
Underfloor and cooling paths
Road film and debris removed from underfloor panels, side intakes and radiator surrounds, where trapped dirt builds up out of sight. Accessible surface corrosion is treated before protection.
Suspension and brakes
Wishbones, uprights, dampers and calipers cleaned in place, with nothing abrasive near bushes, boots or seals.
Also available: wheel arches, underseal and bitumen removal, drivetrain and gearbox, exhaust systems, concours interior preparation and boot compartments. See every automotive service
The method
Why dry ice suits a Lamborghini
Solid CO₂ pellets are accelerated by compressed air onto the surface. On impact, each pellet sublimes, turning straight from solid to gas, and the thermal shock lifts contamination away from the surface. Nothing is left behind.
The difference is control. Pressure, pellet size, flow and nozzle are all adjustable, so the same process can clean a painted panel without marking it or strip years of compacted underbody deposits. Dry ice is also non-conductive, so it's safe to use around wiring, sensors and connectors.
| Method | On the car | Afterwards |
|---|---|---|
| Steam or pressure washing | Introduces moisture | Water left in seams, box sections and electrics |
| Media blasting | Abrasive, with hazardous fallout | Grit to contain; rubber and seals need protecting |
| Chemical degreasing | Leaves residue | A waste stream to dispose of |
| Dry ice blasting | Dry and non-abrasive | Clean, dry, sound surface. Nothing left behind |
How it works
From first call to collection
Assessment
Tell us about your Lamborghini and the work you are considering. We call you back and give you a real quote, usually within 24 hours.
Drop-off or collection
Bring the car to our Hayle unit, or we can arrange collection from your door anywhere in the UK.
Configuration
Pressure, pellet size and flow are set for each surface: painted, bare, composite or heavily contaminated.
Cleaning
Contamination removed dry, in place, without abrasion. Left as a clean, sound surface, ready for inspection.
Chassis protection
Accessible surface corrosion treated, then the protection system you have chosen applied. We record the maintenance interval.
Return
Your car is ready to collect, or returned to your door.
Our equipment
Not all dry ice blasting is equal
Kaeser and Boge compressors, Tundra air dryers and dry ice energy blasting machines. Constant airflow at the same pressure from the first minute to the last, with precise control over pellet size, flow and pressure. Our Hayle unit is built around proper air management and industrial-grade kit throughout. The kit is the foundation. The judgement is what makes it work.
Getting your car to us
Two ways to bring your Lamborghini to Hayle
The work happens at our dedicated commercial unit: Unit 1C, Guildford Road Industrial Estate, Hayle, Cornwall, TR27 4QZ. How your car gets here is your call.
Bring it to us
Book a slot and bring your car to our West Cornwall workshop. Make the journey part of it, then leave it with us and let the work begin.
We come to you
Prefer not to make the trip? We can arrange collection from your door, anywhere in the UK, and return your car once the work is complete. Collection is quoted with your assessment.
Questions
Lamborghini dry ice blasting questions
Is dry ice blasting safe on carbon fibre?
Carbon fibre and composite surfaces can be cleaned with dry ice because the process is non-abrasive. We assess each surface first and set pressure, pellet size and flow accordingly, staying at the gentle end of the range on finished and lacquered carbon.
Will it clean the radiators and cooling intakes?
Accessible radiator faces, ducts and intakes can be cleaned of road debris and film without water. We assess fin condition first and adjust the process for delicate cores.
Can you protect my Lamborghini after cleaning?
Yes. Protection applied to a clean, sound surface bonds better and lasts longer. We hold four systems in-house: Lanoguard, Bilt Hamber Dynax-UB, the full Dinitrol system and IGL Aegis, and recommend by vehicle, storage and use.
Will it remove rust?
Dry ice removes loose rust and contamination, so we can see exactly what's there. We then treat accessible surface corrosion before protection. Anything more serious we'll flag at assessment.
Do I need to bring my Lamborghini to Cornwall?
No. You can drive it to our Hayle unit, or we can arrange collection from your door anywhere in the UK and return it when the work is complete.
