I resisted these for a long time, I just did not see a benefit to having an air tight lid on my wash buckets.
I have been using 15 litre / 4 gallon buckets for a while now, fitted with grit guards, bucket dollies and Detailing Outlaws 'Buckanizer's' for additional tool storage.
Having everything at your finger tips and arms reach is so much more efficient, especially when doing wheels. The dollies are a must have in my opinion as, again, they improve efficiency and allow you to move the bucket smoothly around the car as you clean.
In a technical sense, Gamma Seal bucket lids provide an air tight seal on your buckets, keeping dust out of them and allowing you to transport them if required (to show & shine for example.). In reality, for me a least, I just like the way they look!
These lids come in a variety of colors although the detailing world seems to have settled on red (wash), blue (rinse) and black (wheels) for some reason. For me, I have blue for rinsing and red for wheels. The lids are two piece, an outer ring snaps down on the bucket rim and the lid with a rubber seal then screws in.
Handily, they still allow for the fitment of the Buckanizer are able to stacked.
Do these lids make washing a car easier or better? Not really. But detailing is all about the "details", having a setup like this just makes me happy!
