I need some plumbing #tools recommendations. Since purchasing a pressure washer, I find that I need a better set of Channellock-style groove joint pliers for installing quick-release couplers on hoses. I am looking for models with non-marring curved/angled plastic jaws so my round brass and stainless garden hose fittings don't get scratched. I'd prefer under $30, so not Knipex territory.
Something like this, but maybe a bit better quality:

@voltronic Or get a normal pair, and put some short pieces of vinyl tubing on the jaws.

Maybe I'll try that. I was using rubber jar lid grippers with my channel locks and they keep slipping. Silicone surgical tubing might work also.
@voltronic The silicone tubing may work better. I picture it as being grippier than vinyl.
