Questions & Answers

Is this a good way to re-wax hardwood floors with new paste wax?

It would be fantastic to buff a floor both before and after waxing, but it must not be a large floor! (For something large, I'd probably use a machine.) ) I mostly use it before and after applying boiled linseed oil to guitar fretboards.

Has anyone used this method to remove rust from firearms' surfaces?

Yes, this is the best rust remover; it's finer than the 0000 you can buy at the hardware store. You will enjoy it if you give it a try.

Just to be sure, this is an oil-free recipe. correct?

Yes, it does not contain any oil. It's absolutely stunning.

IF THE OLD WAX MUST BE REMOVED AND THE WOOD MUST BE PREPAREED FOR A NEW LAYER
5/5

Steel wool is a fantastic material. There is no oil, so the oil used to manufacture steel wool will not contaminate your finish. I apply a fresh coat of dark stain (along the grain, not perpendicular) with this (0000), buff it, and move on to the next section. br>br>One word of caution: if you're using Briwax, make sure you have plenty of ventilation!.

Steel Wool isn't all created equal, as I discovered a long time ago
5/5

Of course, if you go to a big box store, you'll only find the lower-grade "bag of briquet-style" briquettes. Steel wool, for example, breaks down quickly, leaving splinters in your hands and, even at 4x0, scratching the wood. Since discovering Briwax Steel Wool rolls, I've never gone back to the low-cost alternatives. Again, thank you for your kindness. You cut sections from a roll (tearing tears the fibers as well, so scissors are required). It leaves no splinters and does an excellent job of bringing down finishes for a second application. It's also what I use to soften the look of a gleaming finish. If you're serious about woodworking, this is the only path to take.

Steel wool isn't the same as your grandfather's
5/5

This isn't the same steel wool you'd find in a hardware store. This is the mac daddy, and it's very consistent and even. If I need to remove rust from a pair of garden shears or something similar, I use the Lowe's stuff. I'm a mid-level turner with over 40 years of flat work experience. br>br>I use this for the final stages of padding on shellac and knocking back the nubs on a poly finish on my small wood turnings and boxes, among other things. Because there is no silicone in it, you can apply a finish after you've used it. It's fantastic. br>br>It's fantastic. Never in my wildest dreams did I imagine myself giving such a high rating to something as insignificant as steel wool.

It came in a nice package and did everything I needed it to do
5/5

This is the real deal. Per use, it lasts a long time and does exactly what I need it to. Apart from the pitting, which I plan to try to fix with a high-quality glass polish compound, my windshield looks ten times better than it did before. I would strongly suggest it.

The strands are extremely fine
5/5

To make a natural stain, I mixed it with vinegar in a Mason jar. This steel wool strand size is clearly very fine, and I still have plenty to try some delicate polishing with. I wish I could make a recommendation in one direction or the other, but I don't feel qualified to do so based on how I used it.

MUCH BETTER THAN THE LOW-COST OPTIONS Things from the depot
5/5

Steel wool of exceptional quality. This worked perfectly for buffing a shiny rifle stock to a satin finish. I began by using 4/0 Steel wool that I purchased from a Lowe's. The Depot is a store that sells various items. It had been a disaster. br>br>This steel wool is a fantastic roll with nice, parallel strands of wool that will not leave cross cuts in the wood finish. In the future, I will only buy this wool. br>br>The roll is quite large, so I used about 8 inches of it to buff the entire rifle stock. I purchased two boxes, so I have plenty of extras.

Refinishing furniture with the best steel wool
5/5

This is the best steel wool I've ever used (literally and figuratively). It's a little more expensive, but it's well worth it; I'll never use anything else for woodworking again.

This is fantastic
5/5

Liberon was the only software I used for my projects, and it was fantastic. This, on the other hand, is just as good and much less expensive.
