TWO Buckets, this is why!
This is a picture of my buckets after I washed my X5. The X5 had not been washed in over two weeks and had been driven in the rain. It was very dirty.
At the end of my wash I was almost out of water in my soap bucket. Can you guess which bucket was the rinse bucket? The grit guard in both buckets is a must. |

Two buckets is definitely a necessity.
I have a grey one for the rinse (grey water) and a white one for the clean soapy water. I actually dump and refill my grey bucket part way through so I'm not rinsing my wash mitt in that filth.
