The two-bucket method uses one bucket of clean soapy wash water and a second bucket of plain rinse water. After washing a panel of the car, you rinse the mitt in the clean-water bucket before reloading with soap from the wash bucket. This removes dirt from the mitt before reloading, preventing you from dragging dirty particles back across the paint surface. The primary cause of wash-induced swirl marks is skipping this step.

For a complete basic setup: two 5-gallon buckets with grit guards, one chenille microfiber wash mitt, one microfiber drying towel (at least 16x24 inches), car wash shampoo (pH-neutral), and a foam gun or foam cannon. A grit guard insert for each bucket keeps settled dirt from the bottom from being picked up by the mitt.
