cloth/woven cloth

Explanation:
Conozco estos trapos, los usamos en casa aquí (en el Reino Unido). Siempre los llamamos "cloths", pero si hay que decir algo más específico supongo que se podría decir "woven cloth".

steel wool pad

Explanation:
No estoy segura si se refieren a los estropajos duros metálicos, puede ser por eso de rejilla. Si fuera un trapo de tela, no creo que diría "rejilla", ¿no? No sé que piensen mis colegas. Saludos.

Si es una toalla de cocina común, lo que en algunos lugares llaman \"repasador\", entonces sería simplemente \"kitchen towel\", en USA, al menos, o \"dishcloth\" (que no son de tela de toalla, sino de algodón, para secar vasos sin dejar pelusita).
