Wheel Arches & Brakes Cleaning

Thorough Cleaning for Hard-to-Reach Areas

Wheel arches and braking systems are constantly exposed to road dirt, brake dust, grease, mud, salt and moisture. Over time, these contaminants accumulate around suspension components, brake assemblies and inner wheel arches, making inspections more difficult and accelerating corrosion.

Our professional dry ice blasting service removes years of contamination without introducing water or abrasive media, making it an excellent choice for restoration projects, preventative maintenance and show vehicle preparation.

Based in Norfolk, we provide specialist automotive dry ice cleaning for enthusiasts, collectors and restoration specialists looking to return their vehicles to the highest possible standard.

Why Clean Wheel Arches and Braking Components?

Cleaning these areas provides several important benefits:

  • Removes heavy brake dust

  • Eliminates grease and road grime

  • Cleans suspension components

  • Reveals hidden corrosion

  • Improves inspection access

  • Prepares surfaces for restoration

  • Restores a factory-clean appearance

These areas are often overlooked during conventional detailing but can dramatically improve the overall condition and presentation of a vehicle.

Why Use Dry Ice Blasting?

Dry ice blasting offers significant advantages over traditional cleaning methods.

Benefits include:

  • Non-abrasive cleaning

  • No water or moisture

  • No harsh chemicals

  • No secondary blasting media

  • Safe around many mechanical components

  • Excellent for restoration work

  • Minimal clean-up after blasting

Because the dry ice pellets sublimate on impact, only the removed contamination remains, making the process clean and highly efficient.
