Utilize an Airless Hose Whip

So stay tuned. First tip of the day is going to be using an airless hose whip when you're spraying with an airless sprayer. So the airless sprayer when you buy when it always typically comes with a 50 foot hose. The 50 foot hose, the end of it is always banded like that. And it's for safety reasons, because it is a weak spot on the hose. When you attach your gun right there, if you don't have a hose whip, it's a lot stiffer. A hose itself, the airless hose, is typically way stiffer than a hose whip itself. Now here's a hose whip. This is a paint life hose whip. The hose whip itself is gonna be a little bit smaller diameter. It is gonna be a lot softer hose. This one is a cloth braided hose making it softer. There is cloth braided whips and wire braided whips if you have to ground your paint. But a whip attached to your hose is gonna make your gun a lot more flexible, a lot easier to maneuver, and you're not gonna be fighting the hose. When you have your gun attached right here, this is not very flexible. All the hose is very stiff. You're typically just fighting and you're very frustrated dealing with that hose. If you've never used a hose whip, you don't know any different. When you put a hose whip on, believe me, you're gonna be amazed and you're gonna wonder why you didn't have a hose whip on. Have a hose whip on every single sprayer I run. I use this style and I use the Exit Flex style whip. It's a lot smaller in diameter and even more flexible even though it's wire braided. That flexibility, the easy-ness, the easy-ness to maneuver it is gonna be less fatigue on your hands, less fatigue on your wrists, less fatigue on your elbows and shoulders. It's gonna make the spraying experience a lot more enjoyable. There are three foot and five foot whips. This is a five foot. You can see because I'm five foot. That's a five foot whip. There are also three foot whips also. Put a whip on your hose, you'll thank me later. The next tip I wanna give you is using a gun extension.
