If it is showing marks clean it with GoJo. Yellow looks professional because it is more visible and may stop someone from tripping on it.

Like you (Mikey) once told me. Use a wet towel or rag when rolling back onto reel.

Or sometimes what I do is, lay the hose out along the curb when its raining, works great.


Or, don't fix what's not broke.

I stood by the V at Mikeyfest and every other cleaner that walked up said " that yellow hose looks terrible!" They can get it for you in Blue or green or whatever. Just tell them what you want.

I got the yellow hose and put in in my garage after 2 weeks if wiping and cleaning. I don't like it. I like orange.

I still think Blue hides the dirt the best, Grey isn't too bad either, followed by orange.

So would a good compromise be that if a person wants high visibility for safety and also wants to make it easy to keep the appearance up a good choice would be orange?

yes.

It's important to note that there is no magic bullet, you can have a hose flexible, lightweight, durable, and high heat resistant, just pick two of the four.
