Located at 4905 34th St S #257, St. Petersburg, FL 33711, The Island Shines Mobile Detailing operates as a car wash serving St. Petersburg in Florida. This page gathers the practical details people usually look for before visiting: where it is, how to reach it, when it opens and how customers rate it. Besides its main category, the business also describes itself as car detailing service, so it may cover more than the name suggests.

Car washes in the United States come in four main formats: the express tunnel, where you stay in the car while a conveyor pulls it through brushes or high-pressure jets; the full-service wash, where attendants vacuum and wipe down the interior after the tunnel; the self-service bay with a coin or card-operated pressure wand, foam brush and vacuums; and the hand wash, where a crew washes and dries the car by hand. Touchless tunnels skip the cloth brushes entirely and rely on chemicals and water pressure, which is gentler on paint but less effective on heavy grime. Most express chains sell an unlimited monthly plan, usually priced at two to three single washes, that is only worth it if you wash more than twice a month. Gas stations often bundle a discounted wash with a fill-up.

The business lists hours on 7 days of the week. The most common schedule is 8 am–7:30 pm. As with most places, expect changes around holidays; the phone number below is the fastest way to confirm. The listed phone number is (609) 923-0153. Many businesses also reply to text messages on the same number if it is a cell phone. More information is available on its website, islandshinesmobiledetailing.com.
