Grit Guard, Inc. was started by Doug Lamb, the inventor of the Grit Guard® Insert, a product that fits in the bottom of any 3.5, 4, 5, 6, and 7 gallon bucket, and acts as a settling filter, to prevent dirt and grit from contaminating wash mitts and brushes while washing vehicles. Doug hated washing his red car, because it seemed like every time he washed it, it marred the paint, leaving unsightly swirl marks, scratches, and spider webbing in the vehicles bright red finish. Doug went to the drawing board, devising a prototype that fit in the bottom of a bucket, separating the grit and grime from the wash mitt. The idea of the Grit Guard was born.
