Where to buy buckets with grit guards?

Been to two canadian tires and the staff thought I was crazy asking for such a thing.

On their website it seems to be sold out everywhere.

Want to do the two bucket system with grit guards for washing the car properly. Any place in vancouver have that?

How about making one to fit?

DIY. Grit Guard, weekend project.

I'm sure you can get all the necessary supplies at Rona/Home Depot/Lowes for under $20.
