Magic Bucket Wash Bucket 3.5 US Gallons approx. 13 Liters white

Is the story of the wash bucket in car care a tale full of misunderstandings?! Well, we wouldn't go that far. However, it is essential to clarify some myths. The buckets for hand washing the vehicle are associated with the US manufacturer Grit Guard Inc., but the invention by Grit Guard is not the wash bucket itself, but rather the company's namesake dirt filter, which prevents dirt particles from swirling up, allowing for a scratch-free hand wash. Grit Guard® bucket inserts have been developed for standardized US wash buckets and therefore fit perfectly into the new buckets from Magic Bucket.

3.5 or 5 Gallons: Which size is recommended for wash buckets?

When deciding on the right size of the wash bucket, many factors must be considered. Vehicle size, type of washing method, frequency of washing, and not least, the space in the car or trunk are to be taken into account. Therefore, we cannot provide a fixed recommendation or rule for this question. If you wash your car at a washing station, you should choose a size that fits in the trunk. We recommend preparing the shampoo water at home or in your garage and therefore closing the wash bucket with a lid for the drive to the wash station.

Own washing utensils forbidden at the wash station? - How to make the wash park operator your "Best Buddy"!

Our tip for enthusiasts at the wash station: If the local wash park operator bans using your own utensils with large signs, it usually means the wash bays are being occupied for too long. Asking the operator whether it is okay to wash with your own equipment early in the morning or late at night when there is little to no traffic is generally met positively. The car can be cleaned thoroughly with your own - ideally pH-neutral or biodegradable washing chemistry - and you often meet like-minded car care nerds with the proverbial "nail in the head".
