I've got two of these to clean up, but I'm not sure what to use. It's hard to tell if they have fiber or stainless mesh elements. Anybody know?

Here's the deal. There is an outer ring and an inner ring of coarse stainless screen. Both are welded so they do not lose their shape. In between is about 12 feet of a finer stainless screen. It all comes apart and goes back together pretty easily.
