0000 Steel Wool

If you're looking for some 0000 steel wool for finishing your latest project, don't bother going to Bunnies for it.

They no longer stock anything finer than that steel "rope" that you use for scouring pots. :mad:

So where do you get it from??

Well I just picked some up from Paul's in the CBD, but as you are in Perth that's not much use to you ;)

You may have luck with Mitre 10 or Thrifty Link.

The Thrifty Link in the City has 000 grade at least.

I know Carbatec Brisbane have some, so maybe Carbatec WA might also?

To mention just two places

Carbatec - Perth
Timbecon - Perth

Man you guys are great.. NOW I have a genuine excuse to travel around.. "Sorry Boss, just off to Perth to pick up some steel wool....":D ;)

I noticed an ad in the April Australian Woodworker advertising some 0000 steel wool, but I forget to bring it with me to tell you the website. So if you have that issue then look for the ad if you cant get it in your area.

The Woodsmith Pty Ltd in Croydon Victoria was the ad
Rustins

I was in a Mitre 10 on the weekend and they had it.

Hey Brudda

Pauls is located in Perth so maybe the Perth sources were appropriate. :D :D :D

Thanks Sprog

I'll call into carbatec and pick some up. But i am scared to go, because of what else i may leave with..

Makit hardware stocks it as well - at least in Northam they do.....not sure about the big smoke.

I just brought some 0000 wool at Bunnings Frankston. I guess it depends where you go as to what they stock

Bunnings have different levels of stores i.e. small medium and large. Ranges and stock is govened by store rating hence different items will be available in various locations.

Are Scotch Brite Pads available there? I've pretty much given up on steel wool in any grade and use the scotch brite pads instead. They seem to last much longer and don't leave behind any residue like steel wool does.
