Grit Guard
Description
Protect your paint from swirls caused by contaminated wash water. Most paint swirls are caused by improper detailing techniques. For example, when you wash your vehicle, dirt and sand get trapped in the sponge or mitt. The first time you re-wet your sponge in the bucket, some of the abrasive particles will come off the sponge into the water. Subsequent dips in the bucket will re-contaminate your sponge. These contaminants will then rub against your paint and produce swirls. To get those particles out of your sponge or mitt, you need the Grit Guard Insert. The raised radial surface fits in the bottom your bucket and extracts grit from your wash mitt or sponge when you drag it across the Grit Guard. The dirt settles at the bottom of the bucket so your wash water stays clean.
The Grit Guard has a radial grid surface that scrapes dirt out of your mitt or sponge. Four quadrants at the base of the Grit Guard calm the wash water and hold the grid above the bottom of the bucket. Dirt falls to the bottom and stays there. Youll be amazed at how much dirt accumulates in the bottom of your wash bucket! The Grit Guard is a real paint-saver. But it has a number of other uses, too. Use it to clean paint brushes by running the bristles across the grid in a bucket of water or paint thinner. Clean automotive parts or drain your oil filter. You can even use the four quadrants as a grid when laying tile. The Grit Guard is solvent resistant and durable. It stands 63mm off the bottom of the bucket and measures 260mm in diameter, perfect for any large diameter bucket. Two Grit Guards are better than one!
For optimum paint protection, stack two Grit Guards in one bucket. The stacked grids stand 5cm above the bottom of the bucket and stabilize more water. The grit settles to the bottom of the bucket and remains there because the grids prevent the water from being stirred up in the bottom. The addition of a second Grit Guard also provides more clearance between the clean water at the top and the dirty water at the bottom to lessen the likelihood that a stray grain of sand will find its way to the top. Note: Grit Gaurd is 260mm in diameter, measure your bucket to ensure it will fit before ordering.
