Product Description
The Scotch-Brite General Purpose Pro Hand Pad 7447 combines flexibility with effective cutting action and precise hand control to accomplish tough cleaning jobs or produce fine finishing results, use after use. Very fine grade aluminum oxide abrasives cut fast and fine, leaving a smooth, finished surface. Suitable for use on a wide variety of materials and for many different tasks. The performance of Scotch-Brite General Purpose Hand Pad 7447 is comparable to steel wool grade 1. However, unlike steel wool, this pad won't shred during use, rust after use, or create fine metal splinters. The nonwoven, open-web material resists loading and can be used dry, with water or solvents, and rinsed clean for reuse. This multipurpose 6 x 9"" hand pad can be used by hand for precise control, with a hand pad block for uniform finishing, or on an in-line sander to cover large areas. Recommended applications include scuffing, cleaning, blending and surface preparation.

There was a problem filtering reviews right now. Please try again later.
They last forever (FOR-EVER-ER), scrubbing the whole engine didn’t use even 1 whole pad. I cut them into pieces roughly 2”x3”, and didn’t through them away until I saw little bits coming off them. Even then they still effectively scrubbed, I just didn’t want the bits left behind.
Besides the engine and components I’ve used them to scrub heavily burned dishes, grills, brighten up copper, prep mettle for welding. All kinds of stuff, these are amazing.
Do be careful when scrubbing things with a delicate finish (or don’t use these at all), they REALLY scrub, they’ll take the finish right off if your not careful.

I cut these pads into thirds. That seems like the right size for me. A box of pads lasts over a year and they are really good at removing grime from pots and pans. (Note: there are different types of Scotch-Brite pads. I've tried a few different ones. These, the 7447, seem to work the best).
For stainless steel, they are excellent, but avoid using them on anything sensitive like teflon because they are very abrasive.
