Choosing the right steel wool grade is the difference between a clean surface and a scratched one, and this 18" #1 steel wool pad is a medium grade (about 100 grit equivalent) made for rust removal, cleaning glazed tile, removing marks from wood floors, and, with paint and varnish remover, removing finishes. The large round pad covers more area than a hand pad, so floor, tile, and refinishing jobs go faster, and the grade is easy to match to the task. Pick #0 for fine finishing, #1 for general cleaning and rust, #2 for scratch and spot removal, and #3 for stripping and heavy cleanup. Wear gloves, and test on an inconspicuous area first.
