I was getting sick of having to stick my entire arm in the 2nd bucket to release debris from my wash mitt. I have seen the dirt dropper, but wanted something that would separate the water and debris more.

I ordered a 5 gallon paint liner cut the bottom out and put it in my bucket which now allows me to agitate the sponge against it releasing the particles below my grit guard.



I would love to see a car wash specific one made. More durable, the right size with a Grit guard, and one that has slots in the bottom to act like a second grit guard.

I wondered what that was. Neat idea.

Nice idea. Would be cool if it was all molded into the Grit Guard and it just went down the center sort of like this....sorry for the crude model.

Looks great Chad. I was hoping of making the wash board perforated to allow dirt to fall through it as the wash medium is agitated against it.

Aren`t you supposed to be working at work?

I think down the side would be better. Curved to match the bucket would be great as well. Would only lose about an inch. Great idea, Greg.

Yeah, I was too lazy to finish the wash board part...and like Ken said, I was supposed to be working! :)

would a traditional angled washboard on top of a gg be a more effective design?

Just go to Lowe`s or HD and pick up one of these for a couple bucks. 5-Gal. Bucket Grid-RM 416 at The Home Depot (http://www.homedepot.com/Paint-Brushes-Rollers-Trays-Frames-Liners-Trays/h_d1/N-5yc1vZaqcd/R-100202982/h_d2/ProductDisplay?catalogId=10053&langId=-1&storeId=10051#.UPGDXejrnKk)

Or, you could just stack a couple grit guards so that you only need to stick your hand in wrist deep.
