Classic cars are more than just vehicles—they are treasured pieces of history, often carrying irreplaceable and highly valuable components. When restoring these automotive icons, careful attention is essential, especially when it comes to cleaning and preparing parts for refurbishment.
At Bang On Blasters, based in Market Harborough, Leicestershire, we understand that classic car restoration requires techniques that protect delicate, historic parts while effectively removing rust, paint, and grime. This is why we use a combination of vapour blasting and advanced laser cleaning to achieve outstanding results.
The Importance of Gentle Cleaning for Historic Parts
Many classic car parts are original and often fragile due to age, corrosion, or previous wear. Harsh cleaning methods risk damaging these components, which can lead to costly replacements or diminish the car’s authenticity and value.
Vapour blasting offers a controlled way to strip light paint and rust without harming the metal beneath. The gentle wet abrasive technique leaves parts clean and smooth, preserving their integrity. It’s especially useful for components with intricate details or thin metal sections.
Introducing Laser Cleaning: Precision Meets Protection
For even more delicate or valuable parts, we utilise laser cleaning technology. This cutting-edge process uses focused laser beams to remove corrosion and contaminants on a microscopic level, without abrasive materials or chemicals. Laser cleaning is non-invasive, non-contact, and highly precise—making it ideal for sensitive parts such as engine blocks, trim, or original decals.
Why Choose Professional Cleaning Services?
Combining vapour blasting and laser cleaning ensures every part receives the right level of care. We assess the condition of your classic car components and tailor the cleaning method accordingly. The result is a beautifully prepared surface ready for restoration, preserving your car’s authenticity and enhancing its longevity.
