Choosing the right steel wool grade is the difference between a clean surface and a scratched one, and this 18" #3 steel wool pad is a coarse grade (about 50 grit equivalent) made for paint and varnish removal and removing paint spots from resilient floors. 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.
