Re: Gladiator Garage - Silver Finish Coming Off! It seems as though any liquid other than water (and possibly even water itself) is causing the problem. Examples include degreasers, WD40, gasoline and other liquids found in a typical residential garage. The finish is pathetically weak. Even...

A few more pics.

Gladiator Garage - Silver Finish Coming Off! Its been a while since I posted photos of my Gladiator garage products, but I wanted to report that although there are many things I like about the products, one thing I definetly do not like is the fragility of the metal finish on the cabinets and...

I did not know that, thanks. Since the one with the hose is only $10 more, perhaps I should buy that one since it will include the donut (even if I later decide to replace the hose with a rubber hose).

yes, I noticed that. I can pick up the professional version off of amazon for $165 without a hose and $175 with a hose, and I think I can pay the extra $50 or so for the professional. Now I'm trying to decide between buying the one with the hose (which is PVC) or buying the one without the...

I believe I have decided in the Reelcraft 5635 OLP. I notice that the Reelcraft reels come with PVC air hoses rather than rubber. Aren't rubber better?

Sears sells a 25ft Reelcraft for $149.99 and you can get a 35ft for $192.57 on Amazon. I think I can swing that. I would also like a matching power cord reel, but those are in the $350 plus range (big difference in price).

Thanks - I now know they are quite a bit more complex than I first thought.

Thanks for very good explanation on how the reels work.

Its perfect except for the price. I can't find a cheaper consumer version of that set.

Yes, I like those sets. Its really hard to justify spending that much for a home garage, however. I was wanting to buy 2 of these for $69 each, but the air hose reel will not work for a power cord...

So it won't work? What do you mean by no brushes in it?

I am thinking about buying two 50-foot 3/8 air hose reels for a garage ceiling mount. I am wondering if I can take the air hose out of one of the reels and replace it with an extension cord. I know that you can buy a separate power cord reels, but I would like both reels to be the same, and I...

That does look like at winner for $69. Its looks very similar to the $200 Reel Craft. Does anyone have any expierence with this MIT Hose Reel?

which one did you pick up? can you send a link to the website?
