Hyundai Ioniq 5: New Car Protection With Joe Huntley Details

There is no doubting that the new cars that are on sale in dealerships today are undeniably different to the ones we have become so used to over the years. Electric powered vehicles are becoming more and more common on the roads and the way they are engineered is chalk and cheese compared to the fuel and diesel powered cars that have gone before – point in case this Hyundai Ioniq 5.

One thing that hasn’t changed though, is how the external surfaces of a vehicle are cared for; maintenance cleans, polishing and protection will always be required to ensure the nasty contaminants the elements have to throw at them can be kept at bay as best as possible. Good news for detailers in an ever-changing automotive world, especially when the owner of this extremely striking Hyundai Ioniq 5 reached out to Joe Huntley.

Providing an example of this type of car in 2021, Joe Huntley was handed a brand new Hyundai Ioniq 5 Project 45, a break from the norm of the Porsches, Aston Martins and Lamborghinis.

The Hyundai is arguably one of the most futuristic cars available on the market today, with the wheels some of the most intricate Joe has likely had to work on! Along with protecting the wheels using a ceramic coating, Joe also treated the Satin Gravity Gold exterior paintwork and glass with a premium sealant from Gtechniq.

This is not your run of the mill paint finish (rather in-keeping with such an unusual car), so sit back and learn from Joe just how best to care for the delicate surfaces on this Hyundai Ioniq 5.

NEW: UF Snow Foam Cannon £35.00

The UF Snow Foam Lance delivers super-thick foam in a 90-degree wide flat fan to 0-degree jet patterns when attached to a pressure washer. The Snow Foam Lance provides clean water for rinsing purposes by twisting the soap control knob counterclockwise to its extreme position. Then, to provide a rich foam output, the soap control knob can be turned clockwise to its extreme position, perfect for use on cars, motorcycles and boats.

The core components of the UF Foam Cannon are made from high-quality brass, with the bottle itself wearing the UF emblem on a high-quality hope plastic that is both thick and durable.
