I would never use steel wool except as a last resort - it deposits steel
shavings all over everything and you can never really clean it all off.
These shavings will rust and perhaps cause dissimilar metal issues.

I use Scotch brite pads (assuming you can get them).

good old fashioned steel wool is the favourite, along with lots of elbow
grease of course. Now I just have to convince the xyl as to why she
needs to help me do this.
