Kia Carnival / Sedona detailing in Houston
The Carnival, and the Sedona before it, is Kia's minivan, and the newest one looks enough like an SUV that many Houston families do not call it a minivan at all.
Paint and interior on the Carnival / Sedona
Paint and exterior
Tall, long and slab-sided, with sliding door tracks along the body that collect grit. The roof is long and needs a step to wash, and the rear hatch and roof are big flat panels where hard-water spots show.
Interior
Up to eight seats, and on top trims second-row lounge seats with leg rests. The door channels, seat tracks and the deep well behind the third row hold more dirt than any other part of the van.
Living in Houston
Carnivals are school-run and road-trip vans, with car seats in the second row and sports bags in the back. Spilled milk and juice in summer heat turn into odors fast, so they are cleaned early.
- Family hauler: car-seat areas, cupholders and seat rails hold the most crumbs; pet hair is an add-on quoted on the call.
- Third row and cargo area: both are included, which is why three-row vehicles sit in the larger size class.
- Light-colored seats are popular: denim dye transfer and sunscreen stains are cleaned early, before they set in the heat.
- Cloth seats on many trims: spot-treated in every interior detail, with shampoo extraction as an add-on when they need it.
What a Carnival / Sedona costs to detail
The Carnival / Sedona is priced as full-size truck / 3-row suv. Prices are by vehicle size and assume normal condition. Heavy pet hair, sand, mold, smoke or neglected paint is quoted on the call, before anything is booked. No surprises on the day.
