Bronze Wool questions - proper wool use - scraping

Hey guys,

I would like to use bronze wool when I get rolling but have a few questions.

Seems like the bronze wool only comes in three packs so how many jobs can you get out of 3 pads?

This spring/summer was my first season doing windows for a company. I have seen jobs where previous years whoever was doing the windows didn't wipe the sill so there was rust from the steel wool.
Since I am trying to do this for myself, I don't want have the potential for that happening.

To me, I would feel safer using the bronze despite the increase in cost.
Does anyone feel the same way? Should I just make sure I wipe frame,sill, mullions (which I do) and use the less expensive steel?

Proper wool use:
Here is the method my boss taught me.

Wet window with mop (swiffer as he called it) then wool window while wet. (same method for scraping)
Horizontal or Vertical pulls - wipe rubber - repeat
microfiber edges to absorb water (I will be using hucks or scrim)
finish with chamois

Is that an ok way to wool/scrap the window? What have some of you found to be better or worse?

Thanks
Anthony
