The Signature Job

Engine Bay Cleaning & Detailing

Years of oil mist, grease, and dust bake onto an engine and never come off with a rag. Dry ice flash-freezes it and lifts it away — down to clean metal, painted valve covers, and legible casting marks — with no water near your electronics and no chemical residue left behind. The single best way to make an engine bay look factory-fresh.

Underbody

Undercarriage & Frame Cleaning

Alberta winters cake frames and underbodies in road salt and grease that eat metal from below. Dry ice strips it off without abrasion so you can inspect, treat, or re-undercoat clean steel — and slow the rust.

Why Dry Ice

The way to clean an engine without wrecking it.

Pressure washers force water into connectors and fuses. Degreasers leave residue and run into the storm drain. Sandblasting eats paint and plating. Dry ice does none of that.

01

No water, no runoff

Nothing to short out your electronics and nothing running into your driveway or the storm drain — just clean, dry results.

02

Safe on electronics

CO2 is non-conductive, so we clean right around wiring, sensors, and connectors without soaking or shorting anything.

03

Non-abrasive

It lifts grime without touching the surface underneath — paint, plating, decals, and gaskets stay intact.

04

No chemicals

No harsh degreasers and no residue left on the engine — frozen CO2 turns to gas and disappears.

05

Gets what rags can’t

Reaches into seams, fins, and tight spots a cloth or brush will never touch, and lifts grime that’s been baked on for years.

06

Mobile & insured

We come to your shop, garage, or acreage — fully insured and WCB covered, across the Edmonton area.

How It Works

Three things happen at once.

Frozen CO2 pellets hit the grime at high speed — and physics does the rest.

01

Thermal shock

Pellets at −78.5°C flash-freeze the grease and grime, cracking its bond with the metal underneath.

02

Lift & release

The frozen layer becomes brittle and lets go of the surface — without any abrasion to the material below.

03

Sublimate

The CO2 turns straight from solid to gas, so there’s no media, no water, and no residue — only the loosened dirt to sweep up.

FAQ

Engine bay cleaning, answered.

The questions we get most from car owners, restorers, and shops.

How much does engine bay cleaning cost in Edmonton?
It’s priced per vehicle based on how heavy the buildup is and how much disassembly and masking is needed. A typical daily-driver engine bay is a straightforward job; a decades-old classic or a full frame-off restoration takes longer. Send a couple of photos through the quote form or text 780.394.4123 and we’ll give you a flat price before we start.
Is dry ice cleaning safe for wiring and electronics?
Yes. Dry ice blasting is waterless and non-conductive, so it cleans around wiring harnesses, connectors, sensors, and the alternator without soaking or shorting anything. It’s non-abrasive too, so it won’t wear away paint, plating, decals, or gaskets the way sandblasting or a pressure washer can.
Do you use water or chemicals on the engine?
No. There’s no water and no harsh degreasers. Frozen CO2 pellets flash-freeze the grime so it lifts off, and the CO2 turns straight to gas — the only thing left to sweep up is the dirt itself. Nothing runs into your driveway and nothing gets left behind on the engine.
What vehicles do you clean?
Daily drivers, trucks and diesels, classic and collector cars, project and restoration builds, dirt bikes and powersports, and engine bays or frames pulled for a rebuild. If it has baked-on grease, oil, or Alberta road salt, dry ice will lift it.
Do you come to me?
Yes — Particle is a mobile service based in Sherwood Park and serving Edmonton, St. Albert, Fort Saskatchewan, Leduc, Spruce Grove, and surrounding areas. We come to your shop, garage, or acreage.
What’s the difference from a regular detailer?
Most detailers wipe, brush, and use degreasers — which can’t reach baked-on grime in tight spots and leave residue behind. Dry ice reaches into seams and fins, lifts grime that’s been on for years, and does it with no water and no abrasion. We also handle restoration and undercarriage work a standard detail won’t touch.
