Re: Car Wash Buckets

I will look at Home Depot First then maybe buy the nice ones.

I could Always make my own wheels, paint it, and put a Meg's logo on it

Re: Car Wash Buckets

I found the fancy ones at Gritguard.com

How much do the ones at home depot run compared to the really nice ones?

35 dollars for 1 bucket w/Grit Guard and Colored lid

35 dollars for 1 Wheel Dolly

120 dollars for 2 buckets, 2 dolly, 1 seat cushion, 2 grit guards, 2 lids

Re: Car Wash Buckets

There was just a discussion about Home Depot having good cheap ones.

Mike's fancy set up will cost ya...

I end up using an extra bucket like yours for my wheels/tires.

Re: Car Wash Buckets

Lowe's or Home Depot will carry a standard 5-gallon bucket.

I currently have 2 car wash buckets that I got at Walmart a while back:

They are just standard 12 quart household buckets.

They look something like this:



I broke down and got some Grit Guards and they don't fit in my buckets.

I couldn't find any different ones at the store today. I am sure they have some industrial type construction ones at Home Depot.

But where can I find the really nice detailer ones that Mike used on his Car Wash Video? Or something along those lines. I don't have to have wheels lol. But it would be nice.

Thanks.
