Rich Posted March 20, 2015 Share Posted March 20, 2015 Is there a Second Rinse bucket in the works for a three bucket wash? You can buy a single rinse bucket or wash bucket as well as the two together. http://adamspolishes.com/shop/exterior/carwashing/adam-s-grit-guard-car-wash-bucket-555.html. I do think that the diamond plate joining piece should be offered alone as an option too so you can attach a third bucket if you need to. Guys?

TheBurninator Posted March 20, 2015 Share Posted March 20, 2015 Do these buckets have graduations on the side still? Any thoughts on a wheel labeled bucket? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rich Posted March 20, 2015 Share Posted March 20, 2015 You mean a bucket labled just for use for wheels? Uh, I think you can go to Lowes and pick up a cheap junky yellow bucket and write wheels on it. Or maybe one that's just for convertible tops. I can see that people might want a bucket specific to each part of a car, but that wouldn't be good for the supplier. There wouldn't be enough demand to cover the cost of supplying something like that. Ricky Bobby 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ricky Bobby Posted March 20, 2015 Share Posted March 20, 2015 ^^^Me too! got a Gamma Seal and Grit guard on it too! HD sells thinner plastic buckets now though which saddens me, there is a difference between the 9 mil buckets Adams sells (I have 2 of them) and the 7 mil plastic you see in most Lowes/HD buckets now. I have 3-4 orange buckets from HD circa 2012 and they are still the heavy duty 9 mil thankfully! werner 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TheWolf Posted March 21, 2015 Share Posted March 21, 2015 ^^Dan (TheWolf) has one I believe, looks like it kicks some *** especially for wheel/tire brushes I have two dedicated buckets for wheels. They are both Adam's premium buckets, but I found that you can't scrub the long handle brushes on the grit guard. I found a different style grit guard that has a washboard attached. When I do wheels/tires, I put CWS in both buckets, but then use the 2-bucket method on the wheels with the washboard bucket as the rinse bucket. For example, I use the wheel brush on the wheel only and then rinse it in the washboard bucket before going back to the first bucket for more suds. This keeps the first bucket cleaner. Then, when I am done with all four wheels, I use the washboard bucket with the long handled brushes to do the tires and wells. In this pic, all the wheel tools are in the right bucket, this is the "cleaner bucket", and the tire and well brushes are in the left bucket with the washboard. And for those who have not seen this setup before, I made the handle that connects the two caddies.

Gen9Rolla Posted March 21, 2015 Share Posted March 21, 2015 The washboard grit guard looks like a great idea. I need to get one of those Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
