Retractable HP and FB hoses?

[Roz]

Wondering if anyone has used or seen a retractable hose that can be used for the HP and FB hoses? I have a truck/van bay and the traditional length hoses are too short. I can simply swap out the hose for a longer one but ideally would like to find one similar to my garden hose that is one a retractable reel. It is neat and easy to use (for the garden). Nothing in the KR catalog....

I've seen a makeshift truck wash that uses pull-down hose reels on both sides of the bay instead of a boom. They aren't made for that environment but seem to be holding up. The big problem I see when I'm there is his customers almost never recoil them back up.

If you can mount them away from overspray .... these have the advantage that have relatively smooth automatic retraction. One of these work well for our metered air that was added as an add'l feature for one our Doyle Vacuums. They have at least one demo video on their website. They are spendy & preferably it would be stainless steel if overspray might hit it. We bought ours from Zoro Tools during one of Greg Pack's shared highest discounts.

Looks interesting. They have several options in the catalog that look intriguing - many thanks Jordan
