    Default 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:

    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 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.

    Hey Brudda

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

    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.
