3M 7447 Scotch-Brite Maroon General Purpose Hand Pads
3M 7447 Scotch-Brite maroon hand pads are very fine, non-woven abrasive pads designed for cleaning, scuffing, finishing, denibbing, defuzzing, blending, and surface preparation. These 6 in x 9 in hand pads use aluminum oxide abrasive mineral to cut fast and fine, leaving a smooth, consistent finish on wood, metal, plastic, ceramic, porcelain, rubber, and composite surfaces.
The flexible open-web construction gives users controlled hand contact on flat, contoured, and irregular surfaces. Use the pad by hand for precise control, with a hand pad block for more uniform finishing, or with an in-line sander when covering larger areas.
Product Summary
The 3M 7447 Scotch-Brite General Purpose Hand Pad is a maroon, very fine grade abrasive pad used for surface conditioning, light cleaning, finish blending, coating prep, and general maintenance work. It is a practical alternative to steel wool, wire brushes, and loose sandpaper when you need consistent abrasion without rust, splinters, or loose metal fragments.
The pad’s non-woven web resists loading and helps maintain useful cutting performance through repeated use. It can be used dry, with water, or with compatible solvents, then rinsed clean for reuse when the application allows.
Flexible maroon Scotch-Brite pads help clean, scuff, blend, denib, defuzz, and prepare surfaces with controlled cutting action and less waste.

Why Choose 3M 7447 Scotch-Brite Pads?
The 3M 7447 pad is built for controlled surface preparation, not aggressive stock removal. It gives painters, finishers, contractors, maintenance teams, fabricators, and woodworkers a flexible abrasive option for everyday cleaning and finishing work.
Unlike steel wool, Scotch-Brite 7447 pads do not rust, shred into fine metal splinters, or leave behind loose steel fibres. This makes them useful before painting, staining, sealing, coating, bonding, or refinishing.
