It sounds great sandblasting without the sand. It's coarse, and rough, and irritating, and it gets everywhere.
I've used dry ice blasting to clean dies still in the press. WAY quicker than removing the die, sending it to the tool shop, having them bead blast the die, then completely tear down the die to clean all the residue out and then reassembly and lubricate, and then finally send it back production.
