Perhaps not solely this but it seems the bigger companies offer this as a complete package

Funnily enough watched a Youtube video about just this. Would you travel to do work? They had a fitted out unit, looked like it was an additional income stream. WIthout fixed overheads could make sense but you would need your clients to have a hoist/lift!

OP, there are a few companies offering Dry Ice Blasting although the one mentioned in this thread seems to be the only one really offering to the automotive sector & they don’t appear to be a specialist unlike some of the American businesses who are on Y/T ...the others appear very much for industry and property restoration by the looks of it. I’ve also been looking for a business who’d do car work as it’s clearly a friendly method of cleaning car components & the underside of a car. If someone offered a mobile service with using something like a QuickJack it would surely be a good opportunity IMO.

PS I’m Midlands based if you do start up a detailing business using dry ice blasting thumbup

How would you store the pellets? You’d need a constant supply of them

1. What is the carbon footprint of your business?
2. I should give the chancellor a call, business tax directly proportional to the cube of the carbon footprint

So you think it’s ok to have a personal attack on me whilst other business are paying a carbon tax. A business like this is going to be taxed to the hilt and I am making a succinct point about it’s feasibility and tax implications before someone invests a lot.
