Big Buckets - where to get ?

[sa-r32]

Anyone know where you can get the big buckets for washing the car, I have the normal household size but would prefer somthing like 20L.

I'm happy to buy them if they are reasonably priced, but surely some businesses are actually throwing these out.

Go ask your local cafe or restaurant, they usually order in bulk food products that come in large buckets like that.

Welcome to Waxit.com.au - Australia's home of Premium Car Care Products, brands = Pinnacle, Swissvax, Zaino, Wolfgang, Poorboys, Klasse. Just bought mine on Tues, arrived Wed. Grit Guard fits in nicely. It's tall enough for all the spray bottles!

They do but not in the 20L size with lids. I've looked several times at different stores.

I've looked everywhere for the cheapest option as well including US websites. Gave up trying to save a miserable $10 or $20 and just bought this:Waxit - Premium Car Care Products you do find one cheaper from a retail store, please let me know. I'd like to get another one.

EDIT: Found a winner at super cheap auto. I feel cheated now lol....

No haggling required, they had a sign on them 2 for $20, and it just came up on the register that way.

I'll meaure the diameter when I get home.
