The 2 bucket wash method is a highly effective, and commonly used technique for washing cars which ensures a scratch-free, thorough clean of your vehicle. This method, as its name states, involves using 2 buckets, one for your ‘wash’ solution and the other for ‘rinsing’ your wash mitt, pad, or brush.

Grit guards are a popular accessory to be used with wash buckets to help keep dirt, grime and other contaminants from being reintroduced back onto the wash mitt or sponge after rinsing in the ‘rinse’ bucket which can cause light scratches.
Grit Guards often have ridges or holes that create a space for the contaminants to fall behind trapping them below the grit guard, this feature separates the dirt from the rest of the water which further protects your mitt when rinsing.
