    I'm looking to have someone dry ice clean the engine bay in my 458. Any recommendations in North Carolina? I live in the Triad region (Greensboro, Winston Salem and High Point).

    Sorry I just saw this. I do not know Tuttle so cannot comment. I know we are a little less per hour and their is no one in the region who knows Ferrari as well as we do when it comes to insuring the results look factory correct. What I mean by that is we have seen work where the original finish or look was changed when dry ice was not regulated properly. The more vintage the car the more important this becomes for retaining value. So if you need service sometime we can do that and the dry ice at the same time. We service many cars from the Triad as the largest and most experienced independent Ferrari specialist in the region.
    Let us know if we can help

    Automotive International of Charlotte - let me just add to Peter's comments and say not all dry ice machines are equal - we purchased a Cold Jet PCS60 which is the latest and greatest machine that is especially useful for automobile applications as it allows one to dial down both the particle size and amount of air pressure, which allows the operator total control when blasting fragile areas, ie wires, stickers, etc.

    Will do. I also want to do a full fluids change as well. I'll trailer the car to you guys. I keep it in Spruce Pine, where I have a 2nd home.

    Kent you are also welcome to leave the trailer here while the car is here. We have several clients we allow to do this as they do not really use except to move the car.
