Strombolian - These eruptions are characterized by distinct blasts of basaltic to andesitic magma from the vent. 1  These blasts produce incandescent bombs that fall near the vent, eventually building a small cone of tephra (cinder cone). Sometimes lava flows erupt from vents low on the flanks of the small cones.
Use steel wool for a satin finish. The scratch pattern left by a gray abrasive pad on the top is more aggressive and uneven than that left by 0000 steel wool. you get a better surface by rubbing out the final coat with steel wool than with an abrasive pad.
I actually thought it would scratch as well, but it's fine. Now that it's clean, I only use the steel wool for bits and pieces that are baked on and too tough for a plastic pot scrub. The plastic won't scratch and I use that one regularly on things like teflon coated pans.
