" new hose reel with Flexzilla hose."

Bill, thanks for mentioning Flexzilla hose. Never heard of it and did a Google search. Seems to fix the problem I am having with my air hose. Just yesterday I tried to get this orange air hose to roll nicely, picture below is the result. Flexzilla seems to not have this problem.

Is that hose that nylon crap? Get rid of it. I threw mine out after it broke in half(15 degrees out), and I bought a 25ft roll of rubber airline. Even when its cold, its easy to work with.

Flexzilla is the name. It makes goodyear rubber hose look like that vinyl/nylon crap in comparison. No matter the temp...it'* beyond flexible. Tough to figure out how it'* that flexible while still having 150psi in it..but it is. And ....it'* super light.

I don't have that pry bar, but have a very nice one with a large handle, love it.

Don't have that kind of air hose, I have the larger rubber hose on a hose reel mounted on the rafters. I will never go back to not having a hose reel. In fact, I want to get another one to mount over the other bay.

This is about 2 coats on my bumper. Looks pretty white. I got it out in the sun for a while before I wet sanded it.
