^^^youve been diddled mate..... £2 each from the pound shop
Once you spend £££'s protecting your pride n joy with a full detail, you try your hardest to prolong the finish and protection, by taking all precautions.
2 proper buckets with gritguards go without saying.
It's a bit like recommending a jumbo car sponge. Yeah it will work, and to the untrained eye you won't notice the damage straight away...
But like I said, to try and keep your car with that "just detailed" look, you will learn to take precautions and use something like a "Wookies Fist"
Most wash suppliers sell decent enough buckets with guards mike.
I would probably try a washshop too. I bought a cheap set off eBay that are very flimsy compared to the ones Adi@DeepshineDetail used when he detailed my car.
