Ive ventured into detailing RVS. I need a high pressure hose that is like cloth or nylon covered as to not scratch while we are on the roof. The traditional wire braided nonmark hoses actually mark an rv or boat. Any product recomendations?
thanks guys
What do you consider high pressure for what you do?
That’s called nylon sheath. That practice is commonly used as a safety buffer for high pressure line bursts, not really suited to dragging on the ground all day. Probably not a bad idea for RV cleaning work as hose lengths don’t need to be very long I would imagine.
Maybe just run your hose through a pool noodle or pipe insulation and let rest on the edge while you’re up there
Pool noodle? Is that like one of these things?
SAE100R5 hose has a textile cover but it won’t net you decent operating pressure ratings like SAE100R1 hose.
Thompkins Protec makes a nylon hose sleeve that would suit your needs. Just cable tie it on your last 25’ or so

I’d run the 0.9" I.D.
You’re welcome!
Exactly. They’re pretty useful little buggers. I use them on PVC sticks to jug for catfish.
