HOMAX PRODUCTS 123100 Bronze Fine Wool Pad, 3-Pack

The wool is really soft on what i use it on its jist right

I use this bronze wool on the exhaust pipes of my motorcycle. It gets the chrome nice and shiny! Burnt on bugs? Bronze wool. Accidentally touch hot pipes with synthetic fabrics? Bronze wool. Water spots? Bronze wool. This stuff is good for other chrome items... It doesnt work as well for aluminum.

This wool works well on rusted chrome, especially with some 3m chrome paste. It doesnt scratch like some steel wool can. Only negative is that it it gets used up pretty fast and isnt cheap.

Works OK, but it falls apart like crazy. Unfortunately it is necessary to use this when steel would be too harsh.

I used this product for polishing

Use only this if you do not want any rust to develop on your metal and chrome. Works great to shine up and clean up those chrome bumpers on your classic ride!

I hate working with steel wool because it rusts so quickly. If youre using steel wool to remove the finish on wood, little bits of rusty steel can get into the wood and ruin the surface. I was very excited to find out that there was such as thing as bronze wool and immediately bought some to try. Ive used it in my furniture refinishing projects for several months now and also to remove rust on metal. Ive also started using it in place of kitchen steel wool pads, which become quickly become too rusty to use. Bronze is softer than steel, so bronze wool scratches less than steel wool of a comparable grade. Overall, bronze wool is a big improvement over steel wool for many applications, and Ive already ordered more of the fine as well as some of the coarse grade. The only reasons for giving docking it a star are: 1) its much more expensive than steel wool (yes, I would expect it to be more expensive, but IMO its disproportionately so, although the price has come down since my original order) 2) because its a soft metal, tiny fragments break off and can make a mess. Note: Bronze wool comes in fine (this one), medium, and coarse grades. I havent seen the medium grade anywhere, but Ive ordered the coarse grade and will post a review after Ive had a chance to work with it. Heres a link the coarse grade in case anyone wants to compare:

Very happy with the purchase. Im planning on using this with experiments on Stirling engine pistons and like that this is a very fine wool that wont rust up like steel wool does.

Works fine but it sheds fibers pretty bad and the pads tend to fall apart pretty easily. Bought to clean light rust from rifle barrel and it worked fine for that.

Bronze is softer than steel, and bronze wool is softer than steel wool, with the added benefit that it does not rust. My friend uses this fine brass wool wrapped around a small round brass brush with bore cleaner to clean his shotgun barrel after going to the range. It removes the lumps of lead that build up without scratching the barrel.
