Hey There SENZA,
Just increase the pitch by 1 or 2. Go from a 12/6 to a 12/7 or a 12/8. Increasing the pitch will make a great difference in the noise level. As they say, been there done that.

Increase the pitch, also use APC props. Much quieter.
As for the Steel Wool...hmmmm, won't the engine suck it back into the exhaust opening at some point?
