Wash type

Touchless tunnel · full detailing

Built for a working lunch hour

Frankfort is the shop for people who don’t have all afternoon.

This is our drive-through location, and the tunnel is touchless — high-pressure water and soap, nothing making contact with your paint. If you work downtown or anywhere around the capitol and you’ve got a lunch break rather than a free Saturday, this is the one you want.

Outside-only is exactly that: pull through the tunnel and get back to work. It handles the everyday grime — the pollen in April, the road salt in January, the film that builds up on a vehicle that lives outside.

When it needs more than that, the full detailing menu runs out of this shop too. Same nine services, same pricing as Shelbyville. Book those ahead so we can give your vehicle the hours it deserves.

Full service, step by step

What happens when you hand us the keys.

  1. Pull up. An attendant meets you at the vehicle and you pick your wash.
  2. Head inside. Full service means you wait in the lobby — coffee, a TV, somewhere to sit.
  3. Interior first. The crew vacuums it out, wipes the seats and the interior surfaces.
  4. Through the tunnel. Touchless — water and soap only, nothing touching the paint.
  5. Hand finish. Hand dried, then door jambs, windows and mirrors wiped down.
  6. Final inspection. A walk-around before we hand the keys back.

Outside-only skips straight to the tunnel. If you want the interior done and the hand finish, that’s the full service wash — see the pricing.

Frankfort questions

Where is the Frankfort car wash located?

We're at 594 E Main St, Frankfort, KY 40601 on East Main Street. Open Monday–Saturday, 9am–5pm. Closed Sunday.

Is Frankfort a tunnel wash or a hand wash?

Frankfort is our drive-through tunnel — and it's touchless, so nothing but high-pressure water and soap makes contact with your paint. No brushes, no cloth. Our Shelbyville shop is the hand-wash location, and it's the one with self-serve bays.

Does the tunnel use brushes?

No. The Frankfort tunnel is touchless. Nothing physically touches your vehicle — it's water pressure and soap only, which is why there's no risk of the swirl marks a friction tunnel leaves behind.

What happens during a full service wash in Frankfort?

You pull up and an attendant greets you. Once you pick full service, you head into the lobby and wait. The crew vacuums the interior, wipes down the seats and the interior surfaces, then the vehicle goes through the touchless tunnel. At the end they hand dry it, wipe the door jambs, the windows and the mirrors, and do a final walk-around inspection before you get the keys back.

What if I just want the outside done?

Then it's a straight run through the touchless tunnel — that's the quick option, and it's what most lunch-break customers get. Full service is the one that adds the interior work and the hand dry.

How fast is the tunnel wash?

It's the quickest thing we offer, which is why it's popular with folks working downtown. We won't quote you a specific number of minutes — call ahead and we'll tell you what the line looks like.

Can I get a full detail in Frankfort?

Yes. The complete detailing menu is available here, same pricing as Shelbyville. Detailing is scheduled ahead so we can set aside the time.

Do you have self-serve bays in Frankfort?

No — the 5 self-serve bays are at our Shelbyville shop. Frankfort is the tunnel wash plus full detailing.

Does my Shine Club membership work here?

Yes. One membership covers you at both locations.
