  4. After the time has elapsed, remove the hose from the vinegar and wipe it with an old towel or soft cloth to remove any vinegar residue.
  5. If the buildup is not completely gone, use an old toothbrush to scrub it off.
  6. Once the hose is clean, rinse it with water. Store the hose in a clean, dry place.
