It would not rest on the bottom of the bucket. I was able to position it to be level, but they should redesign this product to fit the generic 5 gal. container. **Q: Will this fit the Pepboy's 5-gallon red bucket?** A: I don't know, but it doesn't fit home depots. **Q: Do these fit in Home depot or lowes buckets?** A: Yes, these fit a standard 5 gallon bucket. **Q: what is the purpose of this product?** A: This is placed at the bottom of your rinse bucket and helps create a safer washing method that will reduce the chance of inducing swirls and scratches. Here is a great video on the proper steps to washing a vehicle using the two bucket method and a grit guard. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XvIe-83jMCM&t=15s ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Why didn't I get one of these sooner *by M***C on 20 April 2019* ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Must have with bucket *by C***P on 19 September 2025* ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Cumple perfectamente su función *by C***Y on 2 June 2025* Este Grit Guard de Meguiar's es el complemento ideal para el cubo RG203.
