3M Scotch-Brite 7447 General Purpose Hand Pads, Very Fine Grade, 6” x 9” Maroon Abrasive Pads (Aluminum Oxide, Pack of 20)

The 3M Scotch-Brite 7447 General Purpose Hand Pad is a versatile abrasive pad that combines effective cutting action with a fine finishing touch. These maroon pads are a staple in woodworking, metalworking, automotive, and marine applications – anywhere you need to clean, smooth, or prepare a surface by hand. Use them for tasks like removing old finishes or light rust, scuffing surfaces before painting, blending out minor scratches, and polishing to a uniform finish. They’re designed to tackle tough cleaning jobs or produce fine finishing results, use after use.Each pad measures 6 inches by 9 inches and contains a Very Fine grade aluminum oxide abrasive throughout its non-woven fiber matrix. This construction gives a two-fold benefit: it cuts fast to quickly abrade away contaminants or surface irregularities, and it leaves a consistent, smooth finish that’s often superior to what you’d get with comparable grit sandpaper. Because the abrasive particles are distributed through the pad (not just on the surface), the pad provides a uniform cut even as it wears, and it resists clogging with debris. You get a reliable, even sanding performance from start to finish.The Scotch-Brite 7447 pad is incredibly flexible and conformable. Unlike rigid paper-backed sandpaper or shedding steel wool, this pad can be bent, rolled, or folded to whatever shape best suits your task. It easily fits into corners, around curves, and over irregular surfaces, ensuring that you can abrade those hard-to-reach areas. This makes it excellent for detail work on furniture spindles, car panels, plastic components, and more. And because the pad is made of a resilient nylon web, it won’t tear or fall apart during use – even on sharp edges. When you’re done, you can tap out the dust or rinse the pad with water to clean it, then reuse it on the next project.Choose Scotch-Brite 7447 pads as a cleaner alternative to steel wool. There’s no risk of leaving behind steel fibers or rust that could contaminate your workpiece or finish. You also avoid the hassle of tiny splinters in your fingers. These pads are non-rusting and non-metallic, making them safe on virtually any surface, including aluminum, stainless steel, wood, and plastics. This pack of 20 very fine hand pads ensures you have plenty on hand for all your surface conditioning needs, whether you’re prepping parts in a workshop or doing touch-ups on woodworking projects. Professionals and DIYers alike trust Scotch-Brite hand pads for consistent quality and results — it’s like having sandpaper, steel wool, and a polishing tool all in one durable, reusable pad.
