CLR wash on my 52
 
I have been reading up on this for a while.. I plan to give it a try on my 52 1/2 ton. Most posts state to use CLR with a green scotch brite pad.. Are they referring to a 3m abrasive pad (synthetic steel wool) like you would pick up at the body shop supply store or a 3m pad that you would find with the sponges at Target? thanks in advance for your help..

Not the sponge. An actual abrasive pad. Green is just relatively soft. The colors denote how coarse the pads are.

Use a grey scuff pad or 000 steel wool. Green pads are too aggressive and will scratch the paint way more than needed.
