Adam's Grit Guard Wash Bucket with Lid - Professional, Heavy Duty 5 Gallon Detailing Bucket

Awesome! Don’t have to worry about dirt being picked up by my wash mitt and scratching my trucks paint. Definitely recommend!

For some reason I can't quite explain, I have a serious compulsion. A compulsion to fill clean buckets with dirt. In some kind of parallel universe where it was hip and trendy for cars to be dirty, I would presumably be king of the food chain. Sadly, in our inferior, unparalleled universe, this gets me into enormous trouble.For you see (and I do hope you see) I attempt to wash my car like a normal person, but it quickly goes south. I start with a clean bucket. So far so good. I put clean water in the bucket. No issues there. I put clean microfibre towels into the bucket. Again, perfectly tickety boo. I put my preferred brand of car cleaning product into the bucket, which by definition makes the clean trifecta somehow even cleaner. The cleanliness at this stage is utterly overwhelming.Here's where things start to go sour. I've got the clean bucket with the clean water, clean towels and clean cleaning product at my feet. My trusty yet unclean car is by my side. I look between the unclean car and the clean cleaning setup, thinking to myself 'yes, I will transfer the power of cleanliness from the cleaning products to the unclean car, and in so doing transfer the uncleanliness from the unclean car to the cleaning products!'I stroke my chin and giggle happily. It is a master stroke of a plan, one I have been developing ever since I learnt about the transfer of energy in school as a child, and then ever since I decided that dirt was actually just a kind of energy, which also gave me the power to decide that showering was for unpowerful people.Back in the hypothetical, I start to clean my car. There is a nagging worry at the back of my head. 'No, not this time,' I whisper hypothetically to myself. 'This time, I'll fight it,' I insist internally.And fight it I do. Fellow humans entering the underground car park are greeted with the sight of me, bucket in one hand, microfibre towel in the other hand, twisting and yelling, contorting and screaming. I foam wildly, but it is only 67% foam from the bucket - the rest is from my mouth and armpits.Humans flee at the sight of me. All too soon, the battle is over, and I have lost: I lie shaking, panting, sud-stained on the ground. I feel the all-too-familiar sensation as my sense of self-control is wrested from my grip and an unfamiliar entity takes over my limbs and earlobes. Looking to my right I see my left hand start to shake and flex. 'No!' I scream, but the scream is but a memory at the back of someone else's mind - perhaps a mailman.My earlobes twitch.Quick as a flash, my left hand buries deeply into a wayward pile of dirt, contorts inwards like an arcade claw and then triumphantly holds the filth aloft before slam dunking it into my nice clean bucket. I howl internally, but my body pays no notice to my mind, scooping and scooping and dunking and dunking. The deed is done. The bucket, once a holy site of cleanliness, a mecca of meticulousness, is now a festering fairground of filth. The mysterious entity vacates my body at last, leaving me sobbing on the ground.If you're reading this, there's no doubt you suffer the same affliction. Like me, you probably think you are simply incapable of cleaning a car, cursed as you are to compulsively fill your clean bucket with dirt. Like you, I used to believe this to be true - until I bought the Adam's Grit Guard Wash Bucket with Lid. You see, Adam's Grit Guard Wash Bucket with Lid comes with a divine invention, a product so blissfully pure I refuse to believe it was crafted by the hands of man, despite otherwise being a rampant atheist.You see, for when god (who does not exist) crafted the grit guard in Adam's Grit Guard Wash Bucket with Lid, he single-handedly solved a previously unsolvable calamity. This simple row of plastic may look humble, much like the carpenter's cup (which is in a book about things that didn't happen) but it is much, much more. Using the power of divine interference (which I know to not be possible) it keeps every single drop of dirt that I scoop into my bucket sucked magnificently to the plastic bottom, leaving the clean water above.No matter how often my demon visits me, the grit guard in Adam's Grit Guard Wash Bucket with Lid keeps my water clean and holy (which is an abstract and impossible concept). I walk down to my underground car park with my head and bucket held high, knowing that I can now clean my car with clean water in the clean bucket with the clean towels and the clean cleaning solution - and it's all thanks to the grit guard in Adam's Grit Guard Wash Bucket with Lid.Of course, it's only fair to mention that if I wasn't haunted by the demon of car cleaning, I might not have use for the grit guard in Adam's Grit Guard Wash Bucket with Lid. The whole point about using a clean bucket with clean towels and clean water and clean cleaning solution is that you never get dirt in the bucket, as long as you follow the simple yet obvious rule that you never put the unclean towel (once the unclean car has transferred the uncleanliness onto the clean towel and the clean towel has transferred cleanliness onto the car) back in the same clean bucket, thereby ensuring the clean bucket remains clean.If you don't have a screaming, scheming, not-well-meaning car cleaning demon, you will probably have no use for the grit guard in Adam's Grit Guard Wash Bucket with Lid.But if you do, it just might save your life.

Shipping was not an issue and came in a timely manner. I wanted something like this to keep the particulates on the bottom and not in the soap/water. Makes rinsing your rags easy peasy. I'm less worried about scratching from a dirty rag now. Rags stay cleaner longer, and so does your vehicle. Worth every penny.

Arrived sooner than expected, which was a pleasant surprise.
