What is engine carbon cleaning?
Engine carbon cleaning is a form of preventative periodic maintenance, in which potentially harmful carbon deposits are removed from primary engine components. The most effective form of engine carbon cleaning utilises crushed walnut shells as an abrasive, which are hard enough to eliminate carbon deposits but will not cause any damage to the vehicle’s engine.
The walnut shells are blasted at the engine components at a high speed as part of a controlled procedure, which subsequently results in components free from carbon deposits and able to perform with optimum efficiency. Though engine carbon cleaning is traditionally more closely associated with high performance vehicles, it is nonetheless suitable for most types of cars and can prolong engine life.

While there are various solvent-based products and DIY kits available, taking the manual approach cleaning is the most effective and complete way. Unless you know exactly what you are doing, the best way to clean carbon from an engine is to organise professional blast cleaning with a team and experienced technicians.

Professional carbon cleaning can enhance the performance, efficiency and lifespan of your engine – all of which stand to suffer if your engine is damaged through the improper use of carbon cleaning products.

Periodic maintenance holds the key to long-term engine performance, reliability and cost-effective car ownership. The professional removal of harmful carbon deposits from your engine could save you the hassle and expense of much costlier repairs and component replacements in the future.
