Spot on advice! I have been a glass guy and worked in the body shop for 30 years.
0000 steel wool is ok as well and best used with water or glass cleaner.

Just picked up an original workmate myself. I think its a 79-001 but I don't know the type.
Its in very nice condition, gonna clean it up and use it as is. Even the wood is in good shape.

That is a Wilton vise rebadged for John Deere. I believe that did that for a number of companies. Search the 111215 wilton and you will find some info on it.
