We Say
A good wash bucket is the foundation of safe washing, and this one is built with that in mind. Carbon Collective haven’t overcomplicated it — it’s strong, stable and sized properly for modern wash methods, which is exactly what you want from a bucket you’ll use every time the car gets washed.
The 20 litre capacity gives you plenty of water volume to keep dirt suspended away from the wash media, and the rigid construction means it doesn’t flex or distort when it’s full. That matters more than people think, especially when you’re working with heavier wash mitts or moving the bucket around the car.
The wide base and reinforced walls help keep the bucket stable on uneven surfaces, while the moulded measurement markings make it easier to keep dilutions consistent if you’re particular about shampoo ratios.
In our opinion, this is the sort of bucket you buy once and then forget about — it just works, fits properly into a safe wash setup and doesn’t let the process down. That’s why it’s a staple product for us.

Description
The Carbon Collective Signature Teal Wash Bucket is a heavy-duty 20 litre bucket designed for safer, more controlled vehicle washing. Its rigid construction helps keep the bucket stable when full, while the generous capacity supports modern wash methods by allowing dirt to settle away from the wash media.
The reinforced walls resist flexing under load, making the bucket easier to handle and more durable over time. Moulded measurement markings are built in to help maintain accurate shampoo dilutions, particularly useful when switching between different wash products.
Ideal for:
✓ Two-bucket and three-bucket wash methods
✓ Safe washing with bucket inserts / grit guards
✓ Driveway, garage and professional wash bays
This bucket forms part of the wider Carbon Collective wash system.

How To Use
1) Fill and dilute: Fill with clean water and add your chosen shampoo according to the shampoo’s dilution guidance.
2) Use a safe wash method: For best results, use a two-bucket wash method and rinse your wash mitt regularly to reduce the risk of reintroducing grit to the paint.
3) Keep it clean: Rinse the bucket out after use and store it clean and dry to avoid contamination building up between washes.
