Why This Bucket System Exists

This isn’t a random bundle of bucket parts. It’s the result of years of testing, refining, and figuring out what actually makes the wash process better.

Not Just a Bucket

This bucket setup isn’t for normal people. If you think a bucket is just a bucket, the $3 one at the hardware store will probably make you happy. But if you care about how your tools work, how they look, and how the whole system fits together, this starts to make sense.

Years of Testing

I’ve bought and tested more buckets than I care to admit. Different plastics, different thicknesses, different sizes. What I eventually landed on is the Letica 6 gallon 90 mil bucket. It’s thicker, stronger, and the extra capacity gives you more room when rinsing wash media or loading soap.

The Complete System

Over time the bucket system evolved with different inserts, casters and lids until everything finally worked together the way it should. Instead of hunting down the pieces yourself, this package gives you the exact setup I run in my own garage and at OGHQ.

Updated System

Version 2.0 Improvements

For version 2.0 we cleaned the system up even more. The accessories now follow a consistent blacked-out theme including the dollies, Detail Guardz Dirt Locks, Gamma Seal lids, and grey casters. The bucket vinyls were also redesigned to match the style of the Pressol labels many of us run in the garage.

One of the best changes is that you can now choose the bucket color that fits your garage. The system is available in grey, black, or white, while everything else stays standardized so the setup works the way it should.

The result is a system that looks better, feels more cohesive, and makes the wash process easier to follow every time you pull the buckets out.

What's Included

Every part in this package was chosen because it actually improves the wash experience, not because it fills space in a bundle.

Letica 6 Gallon Bucket

The base of the whole system. Thicker, stronger, and sized right so the wash process feels better from the start.

Detail Guardz Dirt Lock

Helps keep debris settled at the bottom of the bucket so you’re not loading contamination back into your wash media.

Bucket Dolly

Keeps the bucket moving smoothly around the car so the whole setup feels easier and a lot less clumsy.

Gamma Seal Lid

Finishes the system off and makes storage cleaner, more intentional, and easier to live with.

Bucket Vinyl Labels

Clean labeling keeps the wash process organized and makes it obvious what each bucket is meant to do.
