[Tosh]

On me haemorrhoids, work wonders.

i use the brass wool pads, but cut down & laccy banded on a gardiners scraper , they're pretty good i got 3 about 18 month ago & still got some left & 2 of us using them.  would never stick that massive holder on though

[Dave Willis]

I bought some from the potty mouthed dealer on facebook a long time ago - don't use them - never really trust them to be honest. Don't even bother with a pad on a Gardiners scraper.

the bronze wool pads are very good if that is what u guys are on about for finger prints there ace the standerd gardners pads are fine tho and cheeper

[mark m]

Bronze wool pads have been around for years way before the facebook groups they do work excellent and for less than £10 imo well worth having in your van

[julian pierce]

I've been using them for a few years,excellent for removing tree sap and bird mess.

Thanks chaps

Nice one Julian. Can I ask where you get them from as I take it they are 9x6 pads cut down?

[julian pierce]

Smurf,they are just Gardiner scrapers with the pad cut down and zip tied,they may not look great but they do a job.

[simonr]

I cut the pads to fit the scraper then get the Mrs to stitch up the cut edges so they don't fray

[mark m]

you could be sad and do what I did a few years ago

Excuse my ignorance but whats so good about Bronze pads as compared to an ordinary green pad?

[Smurf]

Fine bronze wool (0000) is so fine it will not scratch glass unlike the added risk of using a scraper.
Green pads are not "none-scratch" so are not meant to be used on glass really. 

I've used bronze wool 0000 before but not bronze wool pads for wfp work hence why I was asking if the 6x9 pads, pad holder kit from da components sell were any good or not. Or is there an alternative supplier/wholesaler anybody knows of that I can get them from?

You can get these pads cheap as chips on eBay. He's taking the Mick at £49.99 for his set up.

[Smurf]

Thanks.

I've taken a quick look on fleebay and to be honest the price including postage from the states works out about 20 squid just for one pad which also seems a rip off to me too  http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/BRONZE-WOOL-PAD-POLISHING-PAL-6X9-MARINE-CLEAN-POLISH-GLASS-TILE-BUFF-USA-/221712358257?hash=item339f161b71:g:L5AAAOSwDNdVyneV

Thanks Jamie but I was really after a wholesaler of bronze wool pads not just bronze wool.

The chap is selling them on fleebay too http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Da-Multi-Tool-WFP-Attachment-Bronze-Wool-Pad-Water-Fed-Pole-Fits-Unger-Phoenix-/191951283040?var=491071354618&hash=item2cb1302360:m:mhDhGZWu1JticqK-aMmkeBg

By the time you pay for one pad about 20 including delivery on the fleebay link i posted earlier surely you might as well buy the kit  for 40 inc delivery without an donour plastic angle adapter as we have all got spares kicking about?

I can see the advantages of a wider flat 6x9 bronze wool pad holder myself if/when required that can fit onto a wfp so thought I would ask if anyone uses one and if they were any good or not that's all.

Thinking outside of the box I wonder what it would work like to stick a rinse bar on it as well as would then be I guess a one pass multi tool that can deep clean and polish the glass as you wash it without the need for a brush at all?
One for H-Man to try I'm thinking
