0000 Steel Wire Wool for Furniture Restoration

0000 Steel Wire Wool is particularly useful for antique furniture restoration. Its ultra fine fibres allow you to work gently over suitable finished surfaces while helping to remove surface dirt, grime and dust.

It is especially useful on furniture with detailed mouldings, carved areas and awkward turns where applying polish with a cloth alone can be difficult.

0000 Steel Wire Wool for Waxing

0000 Steel Wire Wool is ideal for applying furniture wax. Applying wax with ultra fine wire wool allows the product to be worked evenly into the surface and into areas of open grain, mouldings and detailed woodwork.

Apply the wax directly to the wire wool and work gently in the direction of the grain. Once the wax has been applied evenly, allow it to dry as directed before buffing the surface.

0000 wire wool can be particularly useful when applying finishing wax to antique furniture and other detailed wooden surfaces.

How to Use 0000 Steel Wire Wool

Because 0000 wire wool is an extremely fine abrasive, it should be used with care and with the appropriate product for the job.

1. Cut a suitable piece of wire wool using scissors.
2. Apply the chosen polish, wax or cleaning product to the wire wool where appropriate.
3. Work gently over the surface.
4. On wood, always work in the direction of the grain.
5. Use light, even pressure.
6. Avoid allowing the wire wool to become excessively dry when working on delicate finishes.
7. Remove any residue using the appropriate clean cloth.
8. Buff the surface where required.

Always test first on an inconspicuous area, particularly when working on antique furniture, delicate finishes, valuable objects or unfamiliar materials.

Using 0000 Steel Wire Wool on Wood

When using 0000 Steel Wire Wool on wooden surfaces, always work in the direction of the wood grain.

Apply only mild pressure and avoid using the wire wool dry on delicate finishes. Applying the appropriate wax, polish or restoration product to the wire wool helps it move smoothly across the surface.

0000 wire wool is particularly useful for working around mouldings, carvings, turned sections and other areas that are difficult to reach with a conventional cloth.

0000 Steel Wire Wool for Delicate Finishes

The ultra fine nature of 0000 wire wool makes it suitable for certain delicate finishing applications, but it is still an abrasive material.

When used incorrectly or with excessive pressure, even ultra fine wire wool can leave very fine scratches. For this reason, it should always be used carefully and tested first.

For valuable antique furniture or delicate finishes, start with the lightest possible pressure and use a suitable restoration product to lubricate the surface.

What 0000 Steel Wire Wool Should Not Be Used For

As this is an ultra fine grade and is not designed for heavy removal work.
