If you have an auto body supply store near you they will have both #000 & #0000 steel wool , they also carry 3M scotch brite type pads red is course about equal to 320 wet/dry sandpaper and the one you would use between coats would be the gray pad which is equal to about 400 wet/dry . I like the Scotchbrite it doesn't lose particles like steel wool does and it has the abrasive all the way though so it lasts a long time. I use the gray between coats of polyurethane or pure tung oil not the thinned out junk and the 0000 steel wool for the final finish .the #0000 steel wool also cleans chrome bumpers or car windows without scratching. I have also used the 0000 with a little paste wax to get an awesome satin semi-gloss finish on a tung oil project. actually vehicle paint preparation crosses over into wood finishing more than I thought.
