Scotch-Brite™ hand pads are general purpose hand pads that combine flexibility with an effective cutting action with precise hand control. The hand pads use aluminum oxide which cuts fast and fine, leaving a smooth finish on the surface. These Scotch-Brite™ sheets are a great replacement for steel wool, whilst eliminating contaminants. Unlike steel wool, it won't disintegrate, rust after use or create fine metal splinters.

• A good alternative to steel wool, wire brushes, sandpaper, and other nonwoven products for cleaning or finishing tasks
• Suitable for use on wood, metal, plastics, ceramics, porcelain, glass, rubber, or composites
• Reusable pad resists tearing, splintering, shredding, loading and will never rust, providing a long, useful life
• Can be folded, stacked, or rolled for effective cleaning or conditioning on flat, irregular, or contoured surfaces

These abrasive hand pads are suitable for use on a range of materials such as wood, metal, plastics, ceramics, porcelain, glass, rubber or composites. They are used in a variety of industries and for domestic and hobby purposes. They are particularly useful in home decorating for surface preparation before painting, or for the removal of old gloss or matt paint on surfaces such as doors frames or banisters. These general-purpose non-woven hand pads can typically be used as an alternative to typical sandpaper in sanding and polishing applications.

Non-Woven Abrasives have abrasive grains bonded to flexible nylon fibres, which provide a controlled consistent finish. The open web construction provides and maintains a consistent cutting rate.
