* I have a question on steel wool. Are there members here who have
* a preference of steel wool brands (not Scotchbrite type stuff)??
* Also, when you rub with steel wool, do you orient the pad in any
* specific direction (i.e., the strand direction of the steel wool to the
* direction you rub), and if so why?
* This is for an article I'm preparing.
* Thanks

Jeff,

We use International Steel Wool
ordered in multiple cases directly from the factory.

We definitely rub in a specific way.
We rub the steel wool WRAP opposite the grain
and rub the PAD with the grain.
Steel wool rubbed this way buffs.
Steel wool rubbed with the wrap following the grain scratches the surface.
