fresh air hose
If you use a fresh air machine when spraying foam, do you run the fresh air hose with the main hose line?
It's a pain dragging two hoses around but, I don't know if it would be any better inside the scuffguard.

Considering buying a mask olger recommended earlier.

Thanks to all

i have 200 feet of hose. and only 100 feet for the mask. so know, i just drag the two. plus, i dont like my fresh air source in the trailer. i prefer it out in the fresh air. or hooked up to a huka! depending on the job

keep the air pump away from EVERYTHING you dont want to be breathing,,,

on long runs i will sometimes "twist tie" the air line to the hose set with old romex cutoffs allowing it to seperate out at the last 25' or what ever it takes to keep from getting to tangled up...
the most important componant of this system is your clean/prep/backup man,,,if he is worth his wage he will keep you triggering and be moveing the hose and hoseset ahead of your sprayer...you only make money when the gun is spraying...same goes with scaffold,,ladders, winders and the like..and i dont need my sprayer fagged out cause he's movein crap around...

i prefer the vortex hooka...
look at the spfdepot for this soon!!!
