This is the bucket I've been using for some time now for the 2 buckets wash method. The large section handles about 6 L of liquid and the small section about 4. That about does it for all needs.

looks like you are not in the US so those who are do you know where you can get that bucket?



I use two buckets and its a pain moving them both around the car this looks like it would work great!
 
You can get the "Brute Double Bucket" at Lowes. I would imagine that Home Depot would have their own version of a similar double bucket.

Nice Bucket.



Is this enough water to wash a car? Both buckets combines hold 10L of water which is about 2 2/3 US gallons of water?

Do you know how much it costs and how much water it holds?

I agree it looks perfect for QEW!

It's enough to wash cars like my Volvo V70. Don't know about trucks though.
 
Can't recall exactly how much it cost me ... maybe about $12. Regarding capacity, it does hold about 10L; however, I usually fill it once for the tires/wheels, once for the upper body, and then once for the lower/dirtier sections. The refilling works pretty well for keeping the water from becoming too gritty.
 
Just a clarification on the capacity: each compartment holds 10L; however, the effective capacity of each side is 7-8L if you want to make sure that the two sides don't overflow into eachother.

~One man’s opinion / observations~



I’ve been using two six gallon (23L) Griot’s buckets with grids to trap grit etc, plus they both have casters.

I like to use a lot of water to ensure adequate lubrication when I’m moving/removing dirt from a paint film surface.



I agree that the bucket shown would be ideal for QEW



jgv you use a lot less water on your Volvo than I do



~Hope this helps~

I use the same amount of watter either to QEW or regular wash. Of course I use other bucket for the wheels alone.
