Scotch Brite @ Target
« on: May 27, 2005, 12:00:07 AM »
Hey all,..........just an FYI......

While at Target last night w/ MrsRevs I stumbled across a 2 pack of green scotch brite (600), and a 3 pack of Blue!!! (800)!!  Each for $2.24 if I remember correctly........anyhow.........if you need Scotch brites....Target has them.....and isn't Blue fairly hard to come by ?!

I'm the opposite of all you guys. My one proshop has the gray and maroon ones, which i use the grey bc its 800 grit. I had a maroon one but gave it to my mom bc it is just to much.

At places like home depot etc i have only found green, no blue ones.

Right now i am only using grey, i just push softer if i don't want a lot.

What grit is green?

Are you sure? I thought grey was 800 and blue is 1000.

legend4life95 is correct:

Light Grey = 800 grit
Blue = 1000 grit

If you want the 800 grit grey (generally hard to find), check out:

www.wildoctopus.com

For most applications, the 400 grit burgundy, 600 grit green, and 800 grit grey is all you'll need.

Break out the Tan Pad and lets burn up the shot! Might have to pick up some blue for the shop.

Guys,

"Oh, no, not again!"

The availability of all these products is very regional (North, Southwest, West,Midwest, central, Pacific, whatever). You may find them, you may not. Some say they're in Auto Stores (Auto-ZOne, Pep Boys, etc.), in the wholesale stores (Costco, BJ, Sam's et al), in supermarkets.

Don't go crazy if you can't find them.
