anti-static air hose

[bobcat68]

I need a good air hose to paint with. Does any body use or tried these anti-static hose's? Hutchins has one 50ft $94.00 @abtm Or will a rubber one be just as good at half the price?

My guess is that this is more gimick then anything else. So lets try this who makes a good lite weight air hose for painting?

Not real sure what the purpose is for the antistatic hose, but I use a good quality small dia. flexible hose that only does paint. Rubber is my preference. Mainly it is hidden away so that it does not get used for air tools. Paint guns only.

From what I read it helps cut down static in general and it's suppose to help with metalic paints? I think I will go with a devibliss hose from natl.
