    • Ease off at edges and corners, where the coat is thinnest and wears through first.
    • If the next coat is water-based, switch to bronze wool so no steel strand rusts under it.

    How to use

    2. Step 2Rub lightly with the grain, just until the surface feels smooth under your palm.
    3. Step 3Wipe off the dust and brush on the next coat.

    About this product

    Light rubbing between coats of clear finish

    Grade #000 is extra fine, the second finest pad in the Rhodes American steel wool line. You reach for it between coats of varnish or another clear finish, when the surface only needs its dust nibs knocked down and not a real cut.

    The strands are uniform and gently abrasive, and a pad bends into corners and along moldings. It fits the gap where very fine feels too aggressive and super fine works too slowly. Homax packs it in bags of 12, 16 or 36 pads.

    Before you start

    Stripping paint from old furniture or trim? In a home built before 1978 the paint may contain lead, and the EPA asks you not to clean or rub such paint with steel wool, because it raises lead dust. Have the paint tested first.
