Hoses for car washing.
Right just wanted some advice as I am sick of hoses springing leaks during car washing. What does everyone else use that has longevity? Are the magic/expandable hoses any good? Every hose I have had I have rolled up properly onto a holder but they still break or leak.

Re: Hoses for car washing.
I've been using some old hozelock anti-crish hose I bought years ago and have never had any issues with it. A quick look online and it looks like they have repalced it with the 'ultimate' hose. I don't know if this 'ultimate' replacement range is any good though.

I use an expandable one, works great and springs back to a small size so can be stored easy.audi_driver79 wrote:Right just wanted some advice as I am sick of hoses springing leaks during car washing.

Most annoying thing is though it works on pressure so you need to make sure you have a non-return valve otherwise it's near on impossible to change attachments or attach a pressure washer once it's expanded.
Id recommend one, doesn't kink, mine hasn't degraded and easy to use and pack away.
