3M Scotch-Brite 7447 Hand Pads
Very fine maroon hand pads for cleaning, scuffing, blending, and finishing.
3M Scotch-Brite™ 7447 General Purpose Hand Pads are flexible non-woven abrasive pads designed for controlled hand work on metal, wood, plastics, ceramics, porcelain, glass, rubber, and composites. The maroon very fine grade uses aluminum oxide abrasive to deliver consistent cleaning, finishing, and surface preparation without the rusting, shredding, or metal splinters associated with steel wool.

Built for the everyday surface prep jobs that need control, not overkill.
Scotch-Brite™ 7447 is a general purpose hand pad for shops, maintenance teams, fabricators, paint prep areas, and finishing departments that need a repeatable surface conditioning pad. It is aggressive enough for light cleaning and scuffing, but controlled enough for hand finishing and preparation work where gouging the surface would be a problem.
The open-web non-woven construction helps resist loading, while the flexible pad can be folded, stacked, or rolled to reach flat, contoured, and irregular surfaces. Use it by hand for precise control, with a hand pad block for more uniform pressure, or with compatible hand and in-line sanding equipment.
Best fit
Choose 7447 when you need a maroon very fine pad for general cleaning, blending, scuffing, paint preparation, finishing, light deburring, denibbing, or defuzzing.
Not the best fit
For heavy grinding, thick scale removal, heavy rust removal, or fast stock removal, use a more aggressive abrasive disc, belt, wheel, or cleaning product instead.

Common uses for Scotch-Brite 7447 hand pads
This pad is made for practical, repeatable surface conditioning across industrial, automotive, woodworking, MRO, marine, aerospace, metalworking, and transportation environments.
01
Cleaning
Remove light oxidation, residue, grime, and surface contamination without switching to steel wool or a wire brush.
02
Scuffing
Prepare surfaces before paint, primer, coating, adhesive, or finishing work with a controlled very fine scratch pattern.
03
Blending
Blend minor surface marks, sanding lines, and transition areas for a more uniform finish.
04
Finishing
Produce a smooth finished surface on metal, wood, plastic, fiberglass, primer, and painted surfaces.
05
Light Deburring
Clean up small burrs and sharp-feeling edges where a flexible hand pad gives better control than a rigid abrasive.
06
Detail Work
Fold, stack, or roll the pad to reach corners, profiles, grooves, curves, and irregular surfaces.
For best results, match the pad to the surface and finish requirement. Test in a small area first when working on delicate finishes, visible surfaces, painted parts, plastics, or customer-facing components.
