The base for professional detailing

This bucket is more than just a water container – it’s the heart of your car wash. The K2 Detailing Bucket is specially designed to meet the demands of ambitious car care enthusiasts. With a capacity of 20 liters it provides you with enough water reserves to safely rinse dirt off the paint without the water saturating too quickly. Thanks to its robust construction and the included, waterproof lid you can even prepare your wash water at home and transport it safely to the wash bay.

Recommended use:

Since it’s a wash bucket, the application is very simple but crucial for the result:

1. Preparation: Fill the bucket with water. Use the side scale to measure the amount precisely.
2. Two-bucket method:
   • Use the "WASH" bucket for your shampoo-water mixture.
   • Use the "RINSE" bucket for clean water to rinse the wash mitt.
3. Dirt traps: Optionally place a grit guard at the bottom to keep dirt particles settled.
4. Transport: Place the lid on and press firmly to seal the bucket waterproofly (ideal for the trip to the self-service car wash).

Suitable surfaces & areas of use:

As an accessory, this bucket is universally usable for all areas of vehicle care:

• Exterior: Paint, glass, plastic parts, convertible tops.
• Wheels: Rims and wheel wells (tip: ideally use a separate bucket for this).
• Place of use: Due to its robust design, suitable for asphalt, concrete floors or grates in wash bays.

Heavy Duty Highlights

What makes the K2 Detailing Bucket special

Many conventional buckets are thin-walled, have cheap wire handles that dig in, or only hold 10 liters. The K2 Detailing Bucket, on the other hand, is designed for durability. The print (label) is not a cheap sticker that peels off when wet, but a high-quality screen print that is chemical resistant. The metal handle is reinforced and has an ergonomic grip shell, so you can comfortably carry the full 20 liters.

What makes the "two-bucket method" special

Why are there a "WASH" and a "RINSE" bucket? This system is the gold standard in detailing.

• You take fresh shampoo water from the WASH bucket.
• After wiping over the paint, you rinse the mitt in the RINSE bucket (clean water).

The dirt stays in the rinse bucket, and you always return to the shampoo water with a clean mitt. This drastically minimizes the risk of wash scratches (swirls)!

Detailed product description of the wash bucket

The K2 Detailing Bucket is made of thick-walled HDPE (High Density Polyethylene). This material is extremely impact resistant and resistant to all common car shampoos, wheel cleaners, and all-purpose cleaners. Even if it tips over in the wash bay or is set down roughly, it won’t break.

The dimensions are chosen so that common grit guards fit perfectly on the bottom to prevent swirling of sand and dirt. The included lid seals so tightly that the bucket can even be used as a stool when working on rims or the lower door area (please check for a secure fit!).

This item includes the bucket with the print "WASH", the metal handle with grip piece, and the matching sealing lid.
