Grit Guards

(1/3) > >>

Tortaruga:
Can someone tell me how to use these?

Do I need one in the in the soap bucket and one in the rinse bucket?
Do I scrape the wool mitt along the grit guard before soaping the car? Or scrape it in the rinse bucket?? Or not scrape it at all??? :confused:

I just don't know whether to buy one or two grit guards and what the modus operandi is.

Thanks

coolhandluke:
Not that I have one  :ashamed: but my understanding is that it goes in the rinse bucket and you rub your mit over it prior to using the shampoo bucket,am sure someone will be along soon if thats not correct.

stealthwolf:
As above, you only really need it in the rinse bucket. The idea is that it stops grit particles coming higher up in the water where it may be soaked up by the washmitt/sponge. You don't have to rub the mitt over the grit guard.

Rhys_Gti:
I have one in both and rub it mainly in the rinse bucket, mine were on a deal when getting new buckets they are a good investment.

Top Cat:
I dont think any of the answers above are correct. The idea i believe is to just stop you putting your hand and wash mitt all the way into the bottom of the bucket and into the grit which will be settled on the bottom. I could be wrong but i dont scrape anything across the grit guard.  :happy2:
