Our Story

How the Cunningham family developed a passion for making the surfaces in  workplaces, homes, and vehicles look fresh, clean and impeccably maintained…

As a hospitality professional with over four decades of experience, owner and founder of WHAT A SHINE! Enterprises, Phillip Cunningham, is known for maintaining detailed cleaning and high quality standards for full service hotels and entertainment complexes. His passion and vision for bringing top-of-the-line, superior surface care services to residential and commercial clients led to the formation of WHAT A SHINE! Enterprises.

The Cunningham family has a long history of owning black cars and experimenting with different product lines to obtain the best shine. Phillip’s son, Joshua became a certified automotive detailer and ceramic coating specialist. Joshua started What A Shine Mobile Detailing in Charlotte, North Carolina in 2011.

WHAT A SHINE! Enterprises is pleased to offer high quality, premium services in both companies. Our mission is simple, but profound: Do it right the first time and every time.

What Our Clients Say

My wife's car looked fantastic after What a Shine got finished with it. We use her car to transport our dogs and for trips, so it gets plenty of chances to get dirty. The car looked brand new inside and outside! I will definitely recommend you all...
