This may be a shot in the dark, but I am wondering if there are any makers of neon or bright colored pressure washing hose. I see blue colored pressure washing hoses, but no other bright colors. ---

Yes something like that, but 3/8 and ideally the standard 4000psi non marking. Are the blue pressure washing hoes the most colorful of them? ---

If you’re planning to do much concrete work you want grey non-marking hose. Most the rest will leave marks. ---

Stupid move 99% of the time and get mad every time I do it. How does the blue hose hold up? Does that mark up concrete? ---

I’ve heard yes, but never tried it personally. Make a fashion statement with your water hose, not your pressure hose. ---

you must have some really discerning customers. I never put into my business model my hose color choice. I am all about non-marking, but neon? What business advantage does that satisfy? Just curious? ---

Yes the blue hoses leave marks. The black ones too. Maybe new and never been in the sun would be ok. My blue hose left marks on my bed liner. I’d advise against it ---

What business advantage does that satisfy? Just curious? It’s just another little thing to add to the business where people will notice when I am driving etc. I also feel that when most customers see this they will think they are expensive, and expensive equipment usually means more successful, high quality business. > [@tireshark](#): > > It’s just to draw attention.

The main two hose i use are blue non marking, and i have no problems. I get the “smooth” type so its not loosing the soft rubber compound that leaves the marks. ---

I think most hoses have a swivel end. The smooth is easier to wipe down and roll up due to less friction. > **[100' Smooth A+ Blue 4000psi Hose - One Wire 89211520 #1316](https://www.powerwashstore.com/P/179/100ftSmoothA+Blue4000psiHose-OneWireNo1316)** > > The 100' Smooth A+ Blue One Wire hose has one fixed and one swiveled end that withstands 4000psi at 275°F. ![01101820381](https://pressurewashingresource.com/community/uploads/default/original/2X/2/28ce521ce941ac80bdf4d0ab01e63c74fc1fd835.jpg) ---

Nice, you using the reels to hold the hose or are they plumed through the reel? I got a $200 of $500 at [powerwash.com](http://powerwash.com) coupon I need to use 🙂 so hoping to go through there. ---

On the pressure side they just hold the hose’s, its easier to take off a hundred then it would be to unroll 2 hundred when i dont need to. My garden hose is plumed through. I also have their smooth hose in grey. I use two color to separate machines. My 5.5 machine use the blue and my 4 uses the black/grey reel.
