Could you post a pic of the back of the TW car wash I would like to see what it says. Like if it is a wash and wax.

I went to two today and found some neat things, still no grit guard bucket though. I read an earlier post about them having Black Magic buckets with built-in grit guards. I picked up some MFs, TWPUG liquid and QD, Megs wheel face brush, and this little thing:



Seems like a cheap Mother's Powerball. It looks just like the one in the picture with the exception it only has the wool bonnet. Whatever, for $1.99 I'll use it on the bathroom if I don't like it. Either way, I've got a mini backing plate for my drill...

On a side note, the TWPUG may have just replaced Zaino on my car. Since durability isn't an issue, I can apply it twice a month and not worry, especially since it was only $2.99

FWIW, there are still some grit guard buckets to be found. I lucked into two of them at Big Lots in Hickory, NC this past weekend while traveling.

I got one of the Black Magic gritguard buckets about a year ago.

The first time I used it I cracked the gritguard in half because it kept floating up in the bucket when I went to dip my wash mitt.

I even tried epoxy to hold it down but that didn't hold up.

I still use the bucket, but without the gritguard now.

I would say about 3 months ago, I found them, and then went back later to get every one they had, I use them for glass, or single stage, or oxidized paint 2 bucks per pack. Now they are carrying the full line of megs brushes, needless to say I've pruchased a few.

I found the buckets by the hardware/tools section.
Didn't need it but for $3.99 couldn't pass it up.
