Best Grit Guard: Reviewed and Ranked

A grit guard is the plastic grate that sits in the bottom of your rinse bucket and traps dirt below the screen so it doesn't get re-loaded onto your wash mitt. Five-dollar piece of plastic that genuinely prevents swirl marks — there's no reason not to use one. Run two buckets (one soap, one rinse, grit guard in each) and your wash mitt picks up clean water every dunk. Pair with a quality wash mitt and a proper pH-neutral shampoo for the full swirl-free wash setup.
