Questions about this item

How do I use the coarse grade #3 steel wool pads for paint removal without scratching the surface?

Apply a spray lubricant to the area first, then gently scrub with a pad; the uniform metal strands provide controlled abrasiveness and the flexible pads reach corners without gouging.

When will the 12 pads need replacing during a refinishing project?

Each pad wears down as the steel fibres break off; replace a pad once it no longer holds together or loses its cutting ability, which varies with pressure and surface hardness.

What limits how long I can work continuously with a single pad?

The pad compresses and sheds fibres under sustained pressure, reducing its abrasive profile until it must be swapped for a fresh one from the 12-pack.
