The red 3M Scotch Brite pad leaves a much smoother, much finer finish than the tried and true green and yellow SB pad. I was always very happy with the results the green and yellow pad provided, so I am extremely pleased with the even nicer finish from the red pad.
How do you clean Scotch-Brite pads?
Tip: Clean Scotch Brite Pads in Dish Washer (Scotch Brite), to scrub the dishes, pot and pans and kitchen sink. If they are not too gross, I clothespin them to the rack of the dishwasher along with a load of dishes. I do this often so I don’t have germy pads. Of course if they are too dirty, I throw them away.
Can I wet sand with Scotch Brite?
For light hand sanding, I like to cut a piece of scotch-brite so that 1/3 sheet of paper will wrap around it to make a sanding pad. Wet the whole surface and dunk the new sanding pad in water, and go to it. The scotch-brite will help spread the weight of your hand and carry a little water with it.

Can you microwave Scotch-Brite sponges?
Scotch-Brite is a popular sponge made by 3M; it is safe to microwave if carefully monitored.
Is it OK to add water to Scotch?
The amount of water to add will also depend on the wood the Scotch was aged in. Whisky aged in ex-bourbon casks can handle the water if you accidentally add a drop too much. A sherry cask whisky will “drown” a lot more easily so watch the water (with the exception of Aberlour A’Bunadh which can handle extra water thanks to the higher ABV).
