Prototype detailing tools and storage.

Afternoon gang.
Allow me to introduce...The Bucket Mounted Lance Holder!!.

I had a light bulb moment a few days back while searching the Web I came across a wall mounted Stainless steel lance holder Circa £80/120 but nothing designed for buckets.

After spending the best part of £200 on a new gun and lance kit the last thing I want to do is throw it on the ground while washing the car.

After a trip to Wickes to buy some 2" plastic pipe and fittings, followed by a few hours fettling in my workshop I came up with these.
A prototype atm so bear with me.

Fitted to your rinse/ wheel wash bucket for various size Lance's
In my case, 600mm, 400mm and Gun alone, its a great way of keeping all your kit together while working.





I made up 3 different types of holder mountedbin different ways, to work with buckets dolly's and without, short versions for my 10ltrs wheel buckets too.
I've now been using these for a few months in different scenarios and have to say its made the job as a while even easier.

After that I then made up some for wall mounted storage in and outside the workshop.


.
Tidy workshop, tidy mindset.

It's lovely stuff to use. A little expensive for some, but really is lovely, polish angel and Kamikaze are I think the only 2 brands that make toppers with no polymer content, hence why the price is a little more expensive.

It's a very thick product so a little goes a very long way indeed, 250ml bottle would do about 10/15 coats on an average car

Ah yeah, should have edited that out
All my kit is wall mounted including the Pressure washer being hard piped in place, hose reels, DI vessel etc having it set this way saves on floor space and setup time.

Like all the cleaning kit colour-matched to the car, including the plastic cap on the end of the wall hook.
Just a shame the hook is on the p*ss
Your dedication to detailing is inspiring; now where did I put my bottle of Fairy Liquid and old bath towel?

That wall hook is on the p*ss as well
Seriously though, I'm impressed with your dedication to detailing
