MaxShine Grit Guards – The Unsung Hero of the Safe Wash Technique

Elevate your wash game and protect your paintwork with MaxShine Grit Guards—the must-have tool for any car care enthusiast or professional detailer committed to safe, swirl-free washing. Available in vibrant Red and Green, these grit guards are the cornerstone of effective paint protection during the wash process.

Key Features:

• Essential for Safe Washing: The MaxShine Grit Guard is not just an accessory—it's a critical component of the safe wash technique. By preventing dirt and grit from recirculating into your wash mitt, it dramatically reduces the risk of swirls, scratches, and marring on your vehicle’s paint.

• Radial Grid Design: Sitting snugly at the bottom of your wash bucket, the radial grid design of the Grit Guard acts as a natural barrier between your mitt and harmful particles. It allows dirt to fall below the guard and stay there, keeping your wash water clean and your vehicle protected.

• Stabilizes Water & Traps Contaminants: The Grit Guard doesn’t just separate debris—it stabilizes the water at the bottom of your bucket, minimising the agitation that can stir up abrasive contaminants. This creates a safer, more controlled wash environment every time you dunk your mitt.

• Heavy-Duty & Colour-Coded: Made from durable, chemical-resistant plastic, MaxShine Grit Guards are built to last. With Red and Green colour options, you can easily colour-code your buckets—one for wash, one for rinse—for even better wash discipline and cross-contamination prevention.

Usage Instructions:

1. Preparation:

   • Place the MaxShine Grit Guard into the bottom of your standard 20L wash bucket. It should sit flush and securely.

2. During Washing:

   • Rinse your wash mitt by gently rubbing it against the Grit Guard after every pass over the vehicle. This action dislodges and traps contaminants beneath the grid, keeping your mitt clean for each fresh contact with the paint.

3. Pro Tip:

   • For ultimate protection, use a two-bucket wash method with a Grit Guard in each bucket—one for soapy wash water and one for rinsing your mitt. Pair with our 2 Bucket & Grit Guard Combo Kit for the ultimate safe wash setup.
