22L Car Wash Bucket with Grit Guard & Lid

Swirl-free washing starts with the right bucket. The Auto Choice 22L Bucket with Grit Guard & Lid is a complete wash-bucket system: a generous 22-litre capacity for shampoo or rinse water, a grit guard that traps dirt at the bottom, and a snap-on lid that turns it into storage, a step, or even a seat while you work wheels and sills.

Quick Answer

Why do I need a grit guard?
The grit guard sits at the bottom of the bucket and traps dirt released from your wash mitt below it — so you never rub yesterday's grit back into your paintwork.

Key Benefits

  • Large 22L capacity – plenty of solution for a full-size vehicle wash
  • Grit guard included – traps dirt and debris away from your wash mitt to help prevent swirl marks
  • Snap-on lid – stops spills in transit, doubles as a seat or step, and keeps kit dust-free in storage
  • Two-bucket method ready – pair two for the safest wash-and-rinse routine
  • Tough construction – built for daily use by detailers and enthusiasts alike

  • Capacity: 22 litres
  • Includes: bucket, grit guard insert, snap-on lid
  • Suitable for: two-bucket washing, wheel buckets, storage and transport

Frequently Asked Questions

Can I use it for the two-bucket method?
Absolutely — buy two (one wash, one rinse) for the safest possible contact wash.

Does the lid seal?
The snap-on lid holds firmly for transporting water and solutions, and doubles as a handy seat or step while detailing.

Will my wash mitt snag on the grit guard?
No — the guard is smooth-surfaced; simply rub your mitt against it to release trapped dirt.

Directions

1. Drop the grit guard into the bucket, then fill about three-quarters with water and car shampoo (or plain water if using it as a rinse bucket).
2. Load your wash mitt with suds and wash the car from the top down, one panel at a time.
3. After each panel, rub the mitt against the grit guard to release trapped dirt — it settles below the guard, away from the mitt.
4. For the safest wash, run two buckets (one wash, one rinse) and rinse the mitt before reloading with suds.
5. When finished, empty and rinse the bucket and guard, then snap the lid on for clean storage or spill-free transport.
