Fred:

You are correct.....soda blasting is messy because of the white baking soda used.

Dry ice blasting is like going through a car wash.....only the residue from the bottom paint falls to the ground.....dry ice blasting uses frozen carbon dioxide......the pelts turn to a 'gas' when it hits a substrate surface.

Had my boat dry ice blasted in 2006.....took 20 years of the paint off in less than 5 hours.....what fell on the ground looked like 'ground pepper'.....used a shop vacuum and had the mess cleaned up in 20 minutes. Don't know why this process isn't used more.

Two different things: soda blasting uses something like baking soda, and dry ice blasting uses chips of frozen carbon dioxide.

I think soda blasting is dry ice blasting.
