BBC Top Gear
Background
In March 2016, Top Gear filmed a planned race through and around numerous top sights in central London as a means of showcasing a new Ford Mustang nicknamed ‘The Hoonigan’. The footage showed the car performing stunts outside of the Houses of Parliament, Tower of London, St. Pauls Cathedral, Whitehall and Canary Wharf.

Objectives
- The BBC approached THB to take up any rubber and tyre marks left on the road by cars and reinstate the road back to good condition
Challenges
- Quick turnaround time needed so busy London roads could reopen
- Quick installation time
- Intricate crossing design
Outcome
The Hydroblasting crew successfully and efficiently removed all rubber tyre marks from the affected areas, together with a Police motorcycle escort ensuring complete safety for our team. The Raptor unit was deployed due to the nature of the affected areas. Hydroblasting is the most environmentally friendly method of line removal, re-texturing asphalt and cleaning surfaces. Our hydroblaster uses clean water devoid of any additives at ultra high pressure to deep clean surfaces. Unlike other cleaning methods, our hydroblasters collect all of the dirt and debris into an onboard tank for, ensuring no illegal run off into surface drains. All waste is then disposed off in compliance with Environment agency and our Waste Carriers License.
