Have 6-10 wash mitts in your bucket. When done with one, it goes into and empty container, and you grab a new mitt.
No dirt is EVER introduced back into the wash bucket.
You beat me to it brother.

Great Idea. Thank you.
The best way for me mto find out which will be the best and most efficient way will be to put it to the test.
Thanks for the great ideas guys.

Re: 3 Bucket Wash
Multiple mitts for me, foam gun, and no buckets.
Treat it like it's the only one in the world.

Re: 3 Bucket Wash
It's always a 3 bucket method for me. The wash bucket, mitt rinse bucket and wheels/tires/wheel wells bucket. The third bucket is full of a non acidic APC dilution and that is used first.

I use MF towels in this method for rinseless.
Mitts for when I have to do a full-on wash if the truck is filthy.
