Questions & Answers

I'm back again with the same thing. Is this item currently adjusted (2018) to fit buckets from lowe's and home depot that hold 5 gal. ?

In the spring of 2018, I bought mine from Home Depot and attempted to use it in a 5 gallon Homer Bucket If it rests on the bottom of the bucket, the bucket will not be full. Though I was able to position the leveled product on the 5 gal screwdriver, they need to redesign the product to fit that size of screwdriver.

How does this work with the Pep Boy's 5?" Are you talking about those red buckets?

My grit guard doesn't even go 3/4 of the way into the bucket, just got it last week

Are these buckets small enough to fit in buckets from Home Depot and Lowes?

There is no problem with them fitting in a

This would have been useful to me if I had one earlier
5/5

This is the book for you if you enjoy washing cars. A sponge or brush like this fits perfectly into a bucket and separates from any and all grit that leaks into the bucket. I wish I had one of these years ago. There's a good chance that this will prevent the swirl effect that can occur when you have micro scratches in the water caused by grit. clean my car using a micro cloth mop on a stick and when I used to leave it in a bucket it would sink right to the bottom and sit in the dirt. I'm sure that some of that dirt would be transferred to the micro fiber and then onto my car. The chances of that happening are going to be greatly reduced with this grit guard. Heavy duty plastic has been used to construct this unit, so expect it to last for many years. It is a great product that you should definitely consider purchasing.

A bucket is not the same as another
3/5

It is a solid piece of equipment. The plastic is good and heavy. It is There is a discrepancy between the package size and the actual size. Considering that it is listed on the package as fitting most 3 1/2 gallon to 5 gallon bucket sizes, it would probably be applicable if it were the right size. Despite the packaging stating that it is 10 1/8" in diameter, it is actually 10 7/16" (almost 10 1/2) larger, over a quarter inch larger than the claimed size, which means that it will not fit into They will probably be able to fit their own bucket and a few others in it. As a result of varied circumstances, I have a number of 5 gallon buckets. Many were bought at a store, others were given out for free as rewards for spending so much money there, and others were kept after whatever product they contained had been used. In any case, only two out of the dozen or so buckets were able to allow the grit guard to slide all the way to the It took most people between halfway and three quarters of the way down to get stuck. It is not uncommon to find people with a bucket or two, or even You would have to change it if it was the size the vendor stated it should be. My two were both the same size, so I came back them. If you wish to gamble, you need to decide if you are willing to do so.

Take advantage of the Walmart or Home Depot buckets
5/5

There is a perfect fit in a Walmart bucket, and a perfect fit in a 95$ bucket from Home Depot. Any person will be able to do the job.

The bucket fits perfectly in this product
5/5

In my opinion, Grit Guard is an excellent product it does exactly what it's supposed to do. My five gallon bucket fits perfectly into this bucket thanks to its sturdy construction. The device rests directly on the bottom of my bucket without moving in any direction. The bucket in my possession is from Fleet Farm (Midland) The product comes from Encore Plastics Corporation in the Midwest. Under $3 was the price I paid. I would like to pay the bucket 00. It measured ten and three-eighths inches, and it was made of Grit Guard. As there has been a great deal of discussion regarding the diameter of this item on this site, I used at least eight different measuring tapes and other tools from my well-equipped shop to measure it. We had at least two or three results with a I think it would be around It is, in any event, a well-designed item that is very sturdy. If you are worried about the finish on your cars, then this is a great addition to your wash routine. It comes with two finger holes in the center that enable you to easily remove the guard. Compared to other sets, this one offers a lot of value Considering both items cost under $10, that's a great deal. My recommendation for this item is strong.

As sturdy as she is
5/5

Let me clear up some confusion once and for all for anyone who is skeptical or skeptical of this project. You will need this if you have a blue Lowes 5 gal general purpose bucket that you purchased within the past ten It isn't perfect but listen to what I have to say. There is a 14-inch depth difference between the bucket and this container. It fits about 10 inches below the bucket at Lowes. With a grit guard that is about 2 1/2 inches tall, there is about 1 1/2 inches of free space from the bottom of the bucket where the guard does not touch. Considering the pros and cons, this is not a deal breaker for me. Grit guards do not float to the top of the bucket when it is full of water. It is made out of durable plastic/resin, so you won't have to worry about breaking it unless you roll your car over it. I recommend it.

You will need two buckets and one of these
4/5

In this case, it falls into the 5 category The gallon bucket fits nicely in the car. When I wash cars, I use two buckets - one for water and one for soap. This way, I get to the bottom of the bucket. Depending on their usage, one has wash solution, the other has water, and this is It is a bucket used for rinsing. The Grit Guard should be used to get dirt off the wash rag/mitt after each use. Rinse it in the water when dirty, and then use it to wash. There is a tendency for dirt to fall below the grates, out of sight. If you need a clean rag or mitt, go to the other bucket. Using this method keeps your wash solution cleaner. You will have a cleaner vehicle. The chances of scratches are also reduced by doing so.

Grit guards are another type of device
5/5

When placed in a 5 gallon bucket, they leave about 5" of grit. Even if the bucket where to sit at the bottom of it, the dirt, sediment, ect. would be trapped in the four chambers, and then the sediment would be flushed back up into the rinse water or soapy water once the sediment is trapped. When it is up, it keeps it closer to the bottom, where it should be. You should have 2 of them, one of which has plain water ( or rinse water ) and another one with Put your microfiber in the soapy water after you have rinsed it. The last thing you want is to have dirty soap water in your car. The way you see it. I ask that you do not use a sponge, because all you are doing is destroying your pride in using it.
