The only cleaning method I have heard of that involves dry ice is removing Chewing Gum from fabric. You freeze the chewing gum to make it brittle and quickly crush it and brush it off the fabric.

You might consider tile removal to be a form of cleaning. To remove asphalt floor tile, you can use blocks of dry ice to, again, make the mastic brittle and pop the tiles up. This technique is used when there is the potential to cause damage to asbestos-containing tiles or mastic and produce friable asbestos by using other methods.

Why doesn't the vapour created from sublimating dry ice change colour if dye is added?

The vapor created is not from the dry ice itself, nor is it from the water bucket you're probably putting it in. The vapor comes from water vapor in the air that is condensing because of the cool air. It's like what happens when you breathe on a cool mirror.
