Howdy! I got my bucket about a week ago (not positive on that time line things have been hectic... lol...) and have yet to fully try it out but it seems to be a bucket... It holds water... lol... Just kidding that isn't the review...

Ok so I got this delivered:

I normally don't open packages from strange places in Florida but I decided to open it:

First thought was where the heck did they get snow in Florida and why are they mailing it to me?

So I dug to find out if the snow was all there was and to my surprise it wasn't actually snow but the winnings from the giveaway:

This made me happy! So I pulled the loot from the box of faux snow and looked it over:
A nice tray...

Beautiful bucket in one of my favorite colors...

And an added bonus of some window hole glue!...

So to review the contents of said box now...

The bucket is flexible enough to be dropped wit liquid in it and not break, crack, or come apart it also has a very sturdy metal bail handle to cary said bucket around the car with you...

The tray is made of the same material as the bucket and it fits nicely inside the bucket it has a nice finish except there are still some left over flash from the casting but honestly who cares as it is not a show car...

And the 3M windshield chip repair kit (IDK if this was supposed to be reviewed but I will mention it here quickly) is a very nice needed surprise as the day I got my loot on my way to the shop I got a nice new little pit in the Bimmer's wind screen... I have yet to use it but that will be coming here very soon!

Thank you AGO and Nick for picking me! I will put more info into the bucket and tray once I get a chance to use it... I have a respray coming up in the next few weeks so hopefully soon! I will do an ease of use write up on the Window hole glue in a few days when I use it on the Zed3...
 
I am kinda shocked to see no reply's... Usually there are at least a few smart alecs that say something... lol...

I like the tray in the bucket just a little hard to use with grit guard but good bucket for wheels.

Lol... it is a bit small for a grit guard but I tried it today for my wheel bucket the tray is very handy to have for the brushes...

Good one Nick... Thanks again I really do like the bucket and I will be using the chip repair either tomorrow or Sunday on the Z3!
 
Looks like a good wet sanding bucket, that would have come in handy last night when I was sanding down some headlights.

I think that is it's original intent but hey it worked for a wheel bucket today... I will be doing a respray on my buddies 525i here soon so I will be using it for that...

i got in "trouble" for doing my review of the bucket as a wheel bucket. grit guard definately doesnt fit.

"In Trouble", or not, I liked your review...showed other wet-or-dry options for this 3M bucket.
