Kia Soul detailing in Houston
The Soul is the boxy Kia with the tall roof and upright glass, and Houston owners tend to keep them a long time and drive them hard.
Paint and interior on the Soul
Paint and exterior
A short, square body with a lot of glass and a flat roof, often in a contrasting color. Bright greens, oranges and reds fade fastest on the roof and hood. The square tail makes the area around the hatch a dirt trap.
Interior
Cloth on most trims and leather on top versions, with an upright dash and door panels in textured plastic. The tall cabin is easy to work in, but the rear floor and cargo area collect sand from beach trips.
Living in Houston
Souls used as commuters and delivery cars pile on miles around Houston, and they arrive with tired cloth, sticky cupholders and hazy headlights more often than not.
- Cloth seats on many trims: spot-treated in every interior detail, with shampoo extraction as an add-on when they need it.
- Older plastic headlights yellow in the sun: headlight restoration is an add-on worth asking about.
- Unpainted textured trim: it fades grey in the sun, so it is cleaned and dressed with a matte UV protectant.
What a Soul costs to detail
The Soul is priced as sedan / coupe. 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.
