    Ever wash your car and get the hose stuck under a tire?

    If you've ever washed your car (or used an extension cord, or air hose around your car) you know it's a short interval between the time you start, to the time the hose gets wedged under one of the tires! And of course the more you pull, the tighter it gets. That's why the Hose Slide was created . It's designed to keep waster hoses from getting caught under your tire. The company says it's simple, and effective! It take less than 2 seconds to put down a Hose Slide, so there's no reason not to do it! If you don't put one down, you might just find yourself wasting a lot of time stopping and removing the hose. But don't use it just for water hoses. Next time you're using your buffer, put down a Hose Slide and stop the power cord from getting caught! Don't think you have slack and suddenly your buffer is yanked back! No one wants to make an appointment at the body shop to get buffer burn covered up. And a pair of Hose Slides is under $13. I asked why they weren't sold in packs of four and the spokesperson at the booth said that people really really half of the car at a time. When you move the bucket to other side of the car, just move the Hose Slides too.
