How do I clean the ash bucket?

Troubleshooting
Lid does not fit securely.
Ensure the rim of the bucket is clean and free of debris. Check if the lid itself is warped; if so, contact customer support.
Handle feels loose.
Inspect the attachment points of the handle. If they appear damaged, do not use the bucket and contact customer support for a replacement or repair advice.
Exterior finish is scratched.
Minor scratches can be a normal part of wear. For significant damage, avoid using abrasive materials for cleaning. The powder coating offers some protection, but care should be taken during use and storage.
Ash dust escaping from the lid.
Verify that the lid is fully closed and seated properly on the bucket's rim. Ensure no ash or debris is preventing a tight seal.
