Do you mean a wire brush? Joe, what is your primary language? Just curious.

No, not a wire brush, I don't even know if those things exist abroad. Ah, just had to ask an online dictionary (and verify the word with google picture search) I mean a pan scourer: http://www.beaucaremedical.co.uk/Continence/product/Galvanised+Pan+Scourer+Pack+of+10.html
I found those easier to use than wire brushes, mine were too soft. I have to redo the paintjob though, I screwed up... but I just don't want to go through all of that again, I think I'll end up paying somebody to do it. I congratulate all of you who have the patience and skill to paint a frame.
My primary language is German. Yeah, I am your friendly neighbourhood Kraut in this forum so now everybody knows

3M Scotchbrite pads are also worth a look, good for keying up paint ready for spraying, most coachworks and body repair centres use them.

This is the stuff, same as the link I posted earlier up above in tis thread .... http://www.wmbarr.com/product.aspx?catid=72&prodid=117 . It does come in an aerosol spray can. Lowes and other dept. stores carry it.
