Thank you 👍🏻
Bergeon synthetic steel wool pad. But any 000 grade pad works great. I will find the link and send it to you. Amazon if I remember correctly.

Is it a block, or wrapped around one?

The Bergeon is a wheel, but I use it un-mounted. I am on my phone but I think it's this one. Ultra Fine Bergeon Satin Wheel https://www.amazon.com/dp/B00K2VNZTA..._08x5wbBGFP2PW
But honestly I get just as good results with this....
Norton Abrasives/St Gobain 07660701727 2-Pack 000 Extra-Fine Synthetic Steel Wool Pads https://www.amazon.com/dp/B00GVKSUMS..._.9x5wbXF5Z1MQ

Wow, unmounted - excellent job! I've tried synthetic pads before (3M, I think), but they don't even touch very light marks, I've found.
