Just joined up the forums, posted a brief hello in the new member check in! I already have a question regarding something I've run into recently. I've noticed that with my new 5 Gal wash buckets with grit guards, I usually end up wasting a gallon of soap solution at the bottom. Basically, where the grit guard comes up to, there's probably a gallon of soapy water that I can use if the grit guard wasn't there.
So, the question here is: Would there really be much of a difference in the levels of grit if I just use one grit guard (or both) in only the water bucket rather than wasting all of that car soap when dumping out the buckets at the end of the wash?
I know it's best to take every precaution possible when protecting your paint, but that ~gallon of perfectly fine soap solution is going to waste which is something I don't like to do! This might be different for everyone, but I really see no grit on the bottom of my soap bucket everytime I wash the car. Your thoughts?
