0000 Steel Wool for Professional Wood Finishing

Achieve an ultra-smooth, professional finish on your woodturning and furniture projects with our premium 0000 steel wool. This super-fine steel wool is essential for woodturners and fine woodworkers who demand exceptional results on final finishes and between coats. Whether you’re buffing pen turnings or applying oil finishes, 0000 steel wool delivers the polished results you expect.

Why 0000 Steel Wool Stands Out

0000 is the finest grade of steel wool available, and our 0000 steel wool pack offers exceptional value for home workshops and professional studios. Unlike sandpaper, this super-fine steel wool conforms to contours and reaches intricate details without scratching delicate wood surfaces. In fact, many pen turners prefer 0000 steel wool as their final finishing step.

What Makes 0000 Steel Wool Ideal

Our 0000 steel wool is oil-free, preventing discolouration or residue on your finished work. Additionally, the reusable nature of steel wool makes it cost-effective over time—use it across multiple projects before replacement. The fine, conforming texture of this 0000 steel wool reaches tight corners and curved surfaces that sandpaper simply cannot access. Therefore, it’s the go-to choice for detailed woodturning work.

Perfect Uses for 0000 Steel Wool

You’ll find 0000 steel wool invaluable for a range of finishing tasks:

• Buffing final finishes on turned wood, pens, and bowls

• Applying and polishing wax and oil finishes with superior control

• Smoothing surfaces between coats of lacquer or varnish

• Burnishing oil finishes for enhanced natural grain appearance

• Cleaning and polishing fine woodwork without surface damage

How to Use Your 0000 Steel Wool

To get the best results, dip a small pad of this 0000 steel wool into wax or oil and apply in circular motions along the grain. Always dry and store properly to prevent rust. Furthermore, burnish surfaces gently with steel wool for enhanced smoothness and to enhance natural wood colour. Our 0000 steel wool works exceptionally well as a final finishing step after sanding with abrasive pads.

Why Pen Turners Choose 0000 Steel Wool

Notably, pen turners specifically love 0000 steel wool because it creates a uniformly smooth, satin finish when used with finishing oils or wax. It’s the perfect companion to our fine abrasive finishing pads for a two-stage polishing system. In addition, the fine grade ensures no surface scratching on acrylic or delicate hardwoods.
