Protect Your Paint with the Grit Guard Insert
Eliminate Swirls from Contaminated Wash Water
Paint swirls are often caused by improper car detailing techniques. When washing your vehicle, dirt and sand can get trapped in your sponge or wash mitt. Each time you dip your sponge back into the bucket, abrasive particles are reintroduced into the wash water, leading to scratches on your paint.
The Solution: Grit Guard Insert
The Grit Guard Insert is your best defense against these damaging contaminants. This innovative product features a raised radial surface that fits perfectly at the bottom of any 5-gallon bucket. When you drag your wash mitt or sponge across the Grit Guard, it effectively extracts grit, allowing dirt to settle at the bottom and keeping your wash water cleaner.
How It Works
The Grit Guard's unique grid surface scrapes away dirt from your wash mitt, while its four quadrants stabilize the wash water, preventing dirt from being stirred back up. You’ll be surprised at how much dirt accumulates in the bottom of your bucket!
Versatile Uses Beyond Car Washing
The Grit Guard isn’t just for washing cars. You can also use it to clean paintbrushes, automotive parts, or even drain oil filters. Additionally, it serves as a helpful tool when laying tile.
Durable and Convenient Design
Constructed to withstand solvents, the Grit Guard stands 2.5 inches off the bottom of the bucket and has a diameter of 10.125 inches, making it compatible with most 12-inch diameter buckets. Available in a vibrant range of colors, this American-made, patent-pending product is designed to last.
Maximize Your Protection
For enhanced paint protection, consider stacking two Grit Guards in a single bucket. This setup provides an extra 5 inches of clearance, ensuring that dirt remains settled at the bottom and minimizing the risk of contaminants reaching your sponge.
Investing in the Grit Guard Insert is an affordable way to protect your vehicle’s paint and save you time and money on swirl removal. Don’t let dirt ruin your detailing—experience swirl-free washing with the Grit Guard!
Compatibility
The Grit Guard fits most 3.5-gallon, 4-gallon, 5-gallon, and 6-gallon buckets. Check the bottom of your bucket for the manufacturer's logo to confirm compatibility.
