ShowCar Auto Spa isn’t just a business—it’s a movement powered by passion, precision, and possibility. What began as a one-man mobile detailing operation in a Colorado Springs garage has quickly evolved into a full-service auto styling brand, thanks to the vision of our 18-year-old founder, Sebastian. A single viral video launched us into the spotlight, and by January 2022, we were already expanding. Now, we’re giving driven entrepreneurs the chance to ride that wave of momentum through our growing franchise program.

As a ShowCar franchise owner, you’re stepping into a proven system with multiple revenue streams and a finely tuned operations model. From high-demand services like ceramic coatings, paint protection film, and vinyl wraps to window tinting, detailing, and paintless dent repair, ShowCar is a one-stop-shop for customers—and a versatile, scalable business for you. Our proprietary line of car care products adds another profit layer, giving you the tools to drive real results.

The auto accessory and detailing industry is booming, yet still fragmented. Most providers lack brand consistency and operational support—ShowCar solves that. We arm franchise owners with comprehensive training, marketing expertise, and the back-end systems they need to dominate in their market. And the best part? You don’t need automotive experience—just the drive to build something great.

This is more than a franchise—it’s your opportunity to lead a polished brand in an untapped space. Whether you’re a first-time business owner or a seasoned entrepreneur, ShowCar gives you the platform, the support, and the tools to build a high-performance business with lasting value.

If you’re ready to deliver premium automotive care and grow a business that reflects excellence, it’s time to join the ShowCar family. Let’s transform your ambition into action—one vehicle at a time.

Day in the life of the franchisee

At ShowCar, a typical day for a franchisee blends hands-on automotive passion with scalable business ownership. Most mornings begin with team huddles, reviewing daily appointments ranging from ceramic coatings and PPF installations to mobile tint jobs or marine detailing. Franchisees oversee scheduling, quality control, and customer communication while staying involved in shop operations or mobile units, depending on their model. Our systems are designed for efficiency: from streamlined booking software to in-house flag-rate pay models that reward technician productivity. Franchisees have the flexibility to grow their operation — hiring and training techs, managing inventory, and building relationships with local car clubs, marinas, and dealerships. This business is ideal for owners who want to work both on and in the business — combining a high-touch customer experience with the tools to scale profitably. ShowCar is more than detailing — it’s a lifestyle brand built around quality, presentation, and long-term protection.
