Help on "Scotchbrite" type Scourers

[bumnut]

Tried some elcheapo (green) scourers with danish oit and ended up with a greenish job.
Can anyone provide me with a source of decent scourers?

The kitchen. They're supposed to work a bit better for finishing once they've been broken in.

Bruce,
next time you head down the hill to the big smoke, try Cairns Wholesale Paints, corner Buchan and Southern Access road. Should have them in different grades.

Most industrial suppliers carry these (http://products3.3m.com/catalog/au/en005/manufacturing_industry/abrasives/node_MJ5TJTW050be/root_D58K9TX3VWgv/vroot_VCGPRM0XZWge/gvel_9KZ2M3Q8DQgl/theme_au_abrasives_3_0/command_AbcPageHandler/output_html), I think I got my last box from Blackwoods.

Any specialist abrasive supplier should be able to sort you out,
OR
automotive refinis supplier
or possibly
cleaning supplier

the domestic scourers are :? OK for some work, but they are too small, not available in different grades and arguably not as consistent.

I find maroon the most usefull colour

from memory
black coarse & nasty
green still coarse
maroon ( red) much more like it
grey finer

there are also some specialist stuff like it specificaly designed for wood work.

you can also get round ones that go on your ROS but you need to use them on slow speed or they go... ZZZZIP FFFLLLIPPPT:o across the workshop.
