SicK TypeS

Just moved into a new house and am looking to pick up some equipment, primarily for washing my car. Browsing through home depot's site and google there are so many choices and I'm not familiar with many brands/types of equipment. I want to spend as little money as possible without buying something weak that won't last a year.

I'm looking to buy:

• Garden Hose --considering buying one of those clothlike hoses that can easily be put away or reeled
• Reel for hose --perhaps one of those self wind reels that uses water pressure. buying one of the automatic ones would eliminate the need for a soft garden hose
• Pressure Washer --primarily just for washing my car
• Foam Sprayer (?) --not familiar with these but they look pretty convenient for a quick wash or winter washing. i'm not sure it this is simple an attachment for a hose, or whether this can attach to the pressure washer

Any help is appreciated.

I use a regular garden hose (industrial grade from Home Depot) and keep it away from the surface of the car. I use the tradional fill the buck and use mitt, then rinse with hose. IF i had the money, I would buy a good foam attachment to the hose and use the foam to clean off the car.

buy a good non-kink or rean rubber heavy duty garden hose. I cannont stand to try to wash something with a hose that constantly kink. IMO you cant cheap out on hose.

Rubber hose and the "Ultimate Nozzle " no pressure washer for washing the car .. I have a 1900 PSI and its more trouble than its worth washing wise.
