Tungrens Ultra Clear Detailing Hink, 4,25 Gal

The 4.25-gallon capacity is perfect for a full wash cycle without constant refills, and the lid seals snugly enough that I don’t worry about splashing when I move it around the driveway. The clear walls let me see exactly when the water’s getting dirty, so I swap it out before I ever drag grit acros

The clear plastic makes it stupid easy to see when the water's dirty enough to swap out mid-wash, and that 4.25-gallon capacity handles my truck's wheels without a refill. The lid snaps on tight, so I've been using it as a storage bin for my mitts and brushes between washes, too.

I was skeptical about a clear bucket being any better than my old one, but being able to see exactly when the water turns dirty mid-wash is a game changer. The lid sits snug and keeps everything from splashing out during transport.
