What a detail does
A wash cleans it. A detail makes it look brand new.
The dull spot on the hood. The coffee that went into the carpet. The dog hair in the back seat. The haze on your headlights.
A wash won’t get those out. They take time, the right products, and somebody who takes pride in the work. That’s what a detail is.

Bigger than a vehicle?
RVs, boats and horse trailers.
Yes, we do those. Two levels: a quicker hand wash for regular upkeep, or full detailing with black streak removal, gel coat oxidation, aluminum polish, and the interior or living quarters where it applies. Drop it off at either shop or we come to you.
Pricing depends on size. Give us a call and we’ll get you a real number, not a guess.

Questions we get a lot
How much does auto detailing cost?
It depends on the service and your vehicle size. Our detailing runs from $65 for a spray wash and wax on a car up to $375 for the Ultimate on an XL vehicle. Every price is on this page.
Why is detailing priced by vehicle size?
A third-row SUV has about twice the surface area and interior space of a sedan, so it takes longer. We price in three sizes, Car, SUV/Truck, and XL, so you pay for the work your vehicle actually takes.
Does a detail include a car wash?
Yes. Every detailing service includes a full car wash, so you're not paying twice.
What's the difference between Ruby Clean and Time Travel?
Ruby Clean is an interior deep clean and shampoo: carpets, seats, and headliner. Time Travel is the full detail, inside and out. If the outside is fine and the inside is the problem, Ruby Clean is your service.
Can you get pet hair and odors out?
Usually, yes. Ruby Clean handles most of it, and the odor eliminator add-on is $60 for anything that's really settled in. Bring it by and we'll tell you straight what we can do.
Do I need to schedule detailing ahead?
Yes, please. Detailing takes hours, not minutes, so we set aside the time for you. Call Shelbyville at (502) 257-2308 or Frankfort at (502) 352-2443.
