    Hi all,
    I have noticed the system of bucket with seal and grit guard in US but never in Europe, especially in Ireland. Considering all the rain we get its all fair.
    Anyway, back to the point, I am looking for something like this:
    SS-BucketWashRinseLidFilte1_1024x1024.jpg?v=1371816609
    Does anyone knows where to get this quality product in Ireland? For a reasonable price of course.
    Much appreciated.

    I got my bucket and grit guard a few weeks back from Cleancar.ie. Don't think they have lids though.

    Ah good stuff, I wasn't looking for a lid myself at the time, good to see they have them.

    Lid is only handy if you have to travel or walk a distance to your car in cold weather. I live in apartment myself and washing it right outside is not always an option, meaning I need to either go to nearest garage and pay €7 for a wash and use old&dirty brush while trying to do it all in less than 10min or head to my mechanic where I can use his power wash and by tools (20km away). So yeah..
    This bucket with lid is ideal, I get hot water with solution, head to a place with proper drain and wash my car in peace. Ideally need to figure out a place where I can refill these buckets with clean water for rinsing after or drag 4 buckets myself (not going to happen).

    well, if you go by the web address on the buckets you get to this http://www.scratchshield.co.uk/collections/scratchshield-combinations/products/wash-rinse-buckets-with-seat-lids-and-filters in the UK, may be the place to go.

    Rinse the car and have an onr setup in the buckets is another idea.

    Another alternative, minus the scratch shield:

    http://www.ampulla.eu/Shop-For-Plastic/Plastic-Buckets-and-Pails/10.3-Litre-plastic-Bucket-with-Metal-Handle-and-Lid---White-/p-170-113-440/

    Whos gonna be the first to make the call:

    "Hello, could you tell me what sort of weight that bucket would take...........No, not in it, on it........."

    garry dean wash method could be an option.
