so instead of firing up the compressor, I got me a cordless Pancake compressor (Milwaukee)
Anyhow, doing a new setup for this. I don't see any benefits to those -coiled- hoses. It becomes a large - coil - potentially when blowing out the interiors of cards vs a regular -flat- hose
Only benefit I can see is being coiled, it's a bit easier on storage.maintence, as I don't need to tie it back up after each use.

Is anyone using a coiled hose and if so, is there any extra advantage you see to using this style of compressor hose

I took the coiled hose I had from my ARB pump and just tested it around the car. Don't see any benefit to it aside from -storage- recoil function. Actually due to its bulkiness, it will get in the way of already cramped room doing interiors. I guess I'll skip it for my new cordless compressor. It does cycle a bit for the given capacity but ....hey, it's cordless and no need to fire up the big one.
