Steel wool cheat
I posted this on my facebook page...So I thought I would share here too.
This might save you some time and sore hands & fingers.
1) unroll your steel wool & get your dremal.... use an old wore out bhb reamer
2) Rip off a strip of steel wool 2 in wide & about 4 -5 in long enough to cover it.
3) now you wanna get ready.....turn your dremal on low and letter rip....you might wanna wear your glasses...little bits of flying steel wool ...make un happy eyes!
4) (Steel wool Q-Tip )with dreamal running tighten up steel wool with your fingers by lightly letting it spin between your fingers.....if you have soft skin you might wanna put something on your finger tips when doing this.
Not los but sharpie...but works the same
Fast & dirty photos.. 
5) With dremal on low start buffing.
6)within a second your done and your fingers & hands are happy!

Oh, and wondering what "grade" steel wool you are using? I've found using 4/0 (also known as "0000") leaves a nice polish finish while still getting the job done!
