    Question Pressure washer hose

    I need a new one, but all the ones I've seen have male threads on both ends. See attached pic for what my old one looks like.

    FYI...it's 1/4", 2000PSI. The pressure washer is a Coleman Powermate (don't think they still make them)

    Go talk to the guys at Ace Hardware. I'm amazed by the stuff they can build.

    Can you leave the hose off and just point the pressure washer in the right direction?

    I wouldn't wash that new slab yet.
