Flexeel?


I've been looking into getting some new air hoses cuz Im getting tired of using the bulky 1/2" hoses that I currently use, especially now that all Im doing is trim. Im not looking to go airless since Id rather not waste the current guns that I have. I've been looking into the 1/4" Flexeel hoses and they seem nice. Anyone use em? Are they worth getting and if so where is the best price? The local lumber yard has em for about 30 beans, cheapest Ive seen so far online is $27 for a 50'.

Re: Flexeel?


I use them, and I definitely recommend them, - - rarely pull out the big rubber hoses anymore, - - those prices sound fine to me.

Re: Flexeel?


Just an update. I went shopping at the local "serious" hardware store and bought 3 of them. I bought the 50' 1/4 in hoses and OMG if it doest feel like Im running airless. The rubber hoses went back in the truck and will soon be given away to my dad when I stop over there next. Flexeel is the God of air hoses!
