OPTiX Grit Guard Insert The Grit Guard is a filter that sits at the bottom of your wash bucket and extracts and holds abrasive dirt particles away from your wash mitt for a scratch and swirl-free cleaning experience. Use This To: Take your 2 bucket wash to the next level Get the perfect scratch-free shine Trap dirt at the bottom of your bucket Protect painted surfaces from scratches Fit into the bottom of any 3 or 5 gallon bucket Scratch-Free Car WashOver 90% of swirl marks come from improper washing and drying and the main source of abrasive dirt comes from rubbing washed-off dirt back onto the car. The Grit Guard Insert extracts heavy dirt and grit from the wash mitt, sponge, or towel, and helps hold it at the bottom of the bucket so it does not float back up into the wash medium, drastically reducing the chances of causing swirls and scratches. Works With Gravity For A Perfect WashThe raised radial surface features grates for dirt particles to fall through, and fins that divide the base into four quadrants. These fins break up the flow and keep the water still at the bottom of the bucket, which holds dirt down at the bottom. The Grit Guard Insert comes in multiple colours to designate them for specific uses on sensitive paintwork, wheels and undercarriage part.
