Looking at all those buckets on that linked page....wouldnt the ettore super compact be ideal. A 14 inch applicator would fit plus it has an airtight lid

Hey I have that bucket! It's a sturdy one, the clips are not up to much for the applicator though!

 

[boarcity]

the ones at the top of that page i linked ,i see them everywhere- very popular for trad - they remind me of a suitcase the way they get carried along

whats the furthest anybodys carried a bucket thats got water in it?

couple of years ago an employee of mine decided he wanted to work alone -on foot away from the van - he set off into one of Europes biggest housing estates,armed with a fairly long list of houses to do

lugging a Pulex bucket Half full plus ladder etc

id think he did half a mile all told,pretty good going for a pulex

I did my full house in and out yesterday using my new Ettore compact bucket, and porky pine sleeve. Absolutely chuffed with both, but I won't give them a review on here until they have proved themselves on the job.

I rarely carry my bucket anywhere boar. For a run like you describe; I'll dip my tbar in the bucket, add a little soap to get it suddsey, and then get to work. Once the applicator starts to dry out, I'll top it up with the bottle of my belt. Eventually the applicator starts to get too soapy and a little dry, so I just hold it under a custys outside tap, give it another squirt of the bottle, and I'm good to go again.

i like dipping and swirling my porky scrubber in my bucket every so often to clean it of dirt as it catches in the porky
