This very fine grade steel wool is particularly recommended for applying wax polish to any surface. Using steel wool instead of a cloth will help you to apply a very thin coat of wax. It’s also used to sand down between coats of Teak Oil or Danish Oil. As well as acting as a very fine sandpaper, it ensures that there is a ‘key’ on the surface for the next coat to adhere better.
Try using it for cleaning and polishing bright metals.
