I went to HD today and saw 5 gallons plastic bucket. Not sure if the grit guards will fit in.
Your feedbacks would be appreciated. Thanks.

I use Lowe's 5 gallon ones. Unfortunately the grit guard stops about halfway in it, so I have to use a lot of product and water :(

Maybe just bring your grit guard in before you buy??
 
Grit Guard works well with Firehouse Subs pickle buckets. Donation of $2.00 to for injured Firefighters and families.
 
Home Depot for Wash/Rinse buckets. Lowes bucket for the tires.
 
I use grit guards in the Home Depot homer orange 5 gal buckets. They fit snugly at the bottom of both buckets.
 
Home Depot for wash/Rinse Lowe,s bucket for tires I like that
 
Have white HD bucket with foam rubber grip on handle. Grit guard fits fine at bottom.
 
FAQ's

Does the Grit Guard fit any bucket?

The Grit Guard fits any standard 3.5, 4, 5, 6, and 7 gallon bucket.

List of Buckets that the Grit Guard Insert fits

•The Grit Guard® Bucket (optimum, snug fit, when you tip the bucket over, the insert stays in the bucket)

•Home Depot Bucket

•Most Drywall Buckets

•New Lowes bucket (you would have to slightly cut down the Grit Guard)

I use Lowes buckets. I had to trim the legs on my grit guards.

They are also transparent with measurements on the outside. So you know how much water you have and don't mistake your soap bucket for your rinse bucket.

It is so hard to get the pickle smell out. I dried them out in the sun with dawn and a little water smeared all over the insides for a week and it smells better, but you can still smell the pickles. I use mine for yard tool storage.
 
I use 2 Lowes 5 gallon buckets (blue) and my grit guards fall straight to the bottom for a snug fit.

harbor freight has some white five gallon buckets and the grit guard will fit in there slightly loose...
 
I use the dual bucket system with dolly that I purchased from AG.
