    Re: 0000 steel wool

    Take a 9 volt battery to that steel wool.

    Interesting though. I personally would rather use a microfiber or terry cloth on chrome though. It is, afterall, paint, so treat it as you would the rest of the paint on your car. My $0.02

      Re: 0000 steel wool

      Just my 2 cents I only use steel wool "0000" on bad NON PAINTED metal parts because metal trim or chome is metal...steel is metal... Chrome has just been removed of stuff to make it shine so chrome is metal still...Get it? Degreasers wont get off some CAKED on water spots or whatever and that is what steel wool "0000" is used for. The chrome I used it on... Was my mom's car chrome rims and because of BAD water spotting I used steel wool "0000" I noticed Webbing after but it was only in the sun when you would look at it REAL close and I wasn't sure if it was there before or because my parents got the car washed at the hand wash place. However the webbing went away when I used all metal polish. Thats why its important to use metal polish after ALWAYS.

      As for glass, when I worked at a body shop the owner told me to use it to get off over spray on glass only on the OUTSIDE because it wont scratch glass. I didn't notice any scratching when the light hit it.

      What I have noticed is people forget what steel wool "0000" is used for, water spots and caked on stuff on bare metal... if your exhaust has black gunky stuff then steel wool "0000" obviously wouldn't be the tool. You see what I mean? How could something made to remove hard water stains and surface contaminates be a scratch remover? Dang I should make a write up about it...

              I used steel wool to clean my stainless steel exhaust; looks MUCH better!! Of course, that's not chrome though.
