what is Dry Ice Blasting ?

History fascinates me. I love reading historical books and watching movies with a historic touch. I really admire the archaeologists who spend days and nights in preserving history. It’s such a challenging job to bring historical remains back to their original state. It at times pains me to see how magnificent structures get ruined over the centuries.

Once while browsing the net, I came across something called dry ice blasting and how it is used to clean historical structures. I have no idea whatsoever on this thing. I am a little curious to know about this.

We're looking at this set up next week actually. It is a viable option for not only certain restorations but also cleaning where large quantities of water cannot be used, ice is pretty inexpensive at less than .03/sq ft. Machines are not inexpensive, however can be rented. I'll have to check my old computer for the bookmark on the company we're talking to.
