DESCRIPTION:

The Detail Guardz Dirt Lock will help you avoid adding ugly imperfections into your paint during the wash process! Surface imperfections like swirls and fine scratches often come from the washing process, so it is very important to minimize risks whenever possible. When washing your vehicle, you glide your wash mitt across the soapy surface and dunk it into your rinse bucket after each panel. With the Dirt Lock at the bottom of the bucket, you can pulse your hand to help remove dirt and grime from your wash media and help trap it on the bottom of the bucket. The key is in the patented jet turbine design of the Dirt Lock, which helps speed up and push dirt and grime to the bottom of the bucket. The dirt is forced through hundreds of tapered Venturi funnels to the bottom of the bucket and out of harm's way. Only fresh, clean water returns up the side of the dirt lock through the freshwater troughs. Any small particles that made it through the openings hit the tumbler system and are pushed back down to the bottom of the pail. This simply means that clean water is at the top and the dirt and grime are filtered and trapped at the bottom of the bucket!

Detail Guardz has thought of many other unique features that show this company has literally thought of everything! The special seal off curtain edge forms a nice tight bond with the outer edge of the bucket so contaminants cannot escape on the outside edge. Trapping contaminants at the bottom keeps your washing safe and ensuring your paint looks great. It has retractable finger grips so you can easily grab the Dirt Lock placing it in your bucket or removing it. The flexible legs position it perfectly at the bottom of your bucket and lock the unit in place.


The Detail Guardz

ONE Dirt Lock will filter your wash water as you've never seen before. Protect your car and eliminate the main cause of swirl marks on your paintwork!

    Great for extra peace of mind when you get lazy and do a one bucket wash. Works amazing in tandem with their pad washing system, for a much more economical solution.

    Sometimes it’s easy to overlook the more basic things in your setup. But these are one of the best upgrades I have made. The design and innovation that has gone into them is pretty impressive. I replaced some chemical guys version with these and have been really impressed with them

    Customer Feedback:

    The best grit guard I've found. I can direct my garden hose at full pressure at the guard and very little water is able to splash out. Very safe option to ensure grit will not make its way into wash solution and wash mit. I have one in my wash bucket and wheel bucket to prevent scratches or marring. I definitely recommend this brand

    Review Title: Nice upgrade from the original grit guard.

    Customer Feedback:

    I had used the original grit guard for well over a decade. But I needed to replace my buckets recently and decided to give these a go.\nThey're definitely a nice upgrade over the grit guard. Whilst the difference isn't as dramatic as what they show in the videos, as dirt is soluble in water to a certain extent (unlike the red substance in their videos), but they do seem to keep the water cleaner, so I'm very happy with my purchase.

    Reviewer Name: James B. (Verified Purchase)

    Review Date: 2024-05-09

    Customer Feedback:

    I added a red Detail Guard to my Adam’s 5 Gallon wash bucket. It fits perfectly and functions WAY better than the stock grit guard. Noticeable improvement in keeping grit to the bottom of the bucket, which is important to prevent scratches with single-bucket rinseless washing.

    Customer Feedback:

    Seems to work well. One of three grip tabs on my blue one broke trying to remove the guard from the bottom of the bucket. No matter though as I can still clean the bucket with the guard in.
