      Buy some, you will be glad you did. In my opinion, they make a huge difference. I was amazed after using them for the first time.

        Re: Do you use the Grit Guard?

        I use the grit guard in my rinse bucket. Not only does it trap the dirt underneath, I lightly rub my mitt/sponge on it each time I rinse my wash media.
        I also use my grit guard to clean the polishing pad when I'm done, with the pad on a rotary. I GENTLY(2000 grit) sanded the Grit Guard on a few high points because it had a few places on it that felt like it might rip a pad or mitt. After using a regular Grit Guard to clean my pads a few times I bought a Universal Pad Washer, which uses, surprisingly enough, a Grit Guard to clean the pads. I gently sanded that one too on a few high points.

          I use them in both my rinse and soap bucket... then after a wash I use the as a drying rack for my mitts.

                    I voted "No" simply because I couldn't find any at local market. that's sad

                      I use one in each bucket, sometimes two in one bucket depending on if the car is really dirty

                          If you do, get a black one this time. They work much better than the red ones...

                            wow, these seem pretty popular, how much do they cost and were can I get one. With all the car washes I do in the summer, this might be worth it?

                              Had to order mine from ADS. Couldn't find them in any local stores. I believe Autopia/Autogeek also has them. ADS prices are a little lower - $8.95ea or two for $15.95.
