Every time you dip a dirty wash mitt back into the bucket, the dirt you just took off the car goes back into the water, and then back onto the paint, where it acts like sandpaper. The Maxshine Sand Killer sits in the bottom of your wash bucket and traps that grit below it, so your mitt picks up clean, soapy water instead.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eHow it works\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eRub your mitt against the guard when you rinse it. Dirt and grit fall through the grille and settle at the bottom of the bucket, where the guard stops them being stirred back up. Your mitt stays cleaner, your water stays cleaner, and you cut the main cause of wash-induced swirls.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eKey features\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eTraps grit:\u003c\/strong\u003e holds dirt at the bottom of the bucket\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eKeeps your mitt clean:\u003c\/strong\u003e less dirt dragged back onto the paint\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eReduces wash swirls:\u003c\/strong\u003e tackles the most common cause of swirl marks\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCentre finger holes:\u003c\/strong\u003e easy to lift out for cleaning\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDesigned to fit Maxshine buckets\u003c\/strong\u003e and most standard round wash buckets\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eRed or green:\u003c\/strong\u003e colour-code your rinse and wash buckets\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eSpecifications\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003ctable\u003e\n\u003ctbody\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"background-color: #e6e6e6; color: #222222; text-align: left;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDiameter\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd style=\"background-color: #e6e6e6; color: #222222; text-align: left;\"\u003e26.5 cm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e233 g\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eColours\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eRed, green\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/tbody\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eThe two-bucket method\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003col\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSet up two buckets,\u003c\/strong\u003e each with a grit guard: one with shampoo, one with clean rinse water.
