Hi all,

Which you would say is the best bucket to use when washing the Scooby? Is round, square or rectangle better??

What about colour, has to be cool!! a yellow one would not look right....

Cheers

 

i use a triangle bucket with flowers painted on.

 

Cool sounds better than mine!!

 

if being serious mate any bucket will do as long as its clean and you use the two bucket method, if your takin the pee please take it elsewhere

 

Whats the two bucket method? Do I need to buy another bucket??

 

One bucket of warm water and wash and the other bucket with clean water to rinse your mit out

 

Bucket and a grit gard.

This is the bench mark for size, practicality and keeping grit at the bottom of the bucket.

Clear Bucket with Grit Guard and Gamma Seal Lid

 

£25





does look good tho

 

try this

Meguiar's Grit Guard & Bucket

 

Agreed - looks ace, but £25. I'd feel bad charging that for a bucket!

 

We still use the clear 12 L buckets from B&Q that cost 3.95 each - great value, good performance, and sturdy. See here...

 

Not a fan of the grit guard then ?

 

Do i take it clear ones are preffered so it can be seen when the water needs changing ?

I personally just use a 2 14 L black no.s from Wilkinson's.

 

No, our feeling is that they simply encourage you to put your hand down into the dirtier part of the bucket. If you work in the top 2-3 inches of water only, which is easy to do with the above buckets, you're keeping the mitt well away from the stew in the bottom. Also, if you run your fingers through the mitt with each rinse, then you mimick the action of the grit guard and encourage any embedded muck to be flushed out.

 

Exactly!
