I *think* you’ll get a stronger effect if the steel is coupled directly to the magnets, which may raise practical issues. But you may not want it that strong, and I believe it can still work. IIRC, the Dimarzio “Air” pickups use an air gap between the humbucker’s magnet and the slugs and pole pieces to mellow the sound.
So get a thin sheet of steel at a home improvement store, some protective gloves, metal shears, and something to smooth down the sharp/jagged/rough edges, and experiment and report back? I would think ideally you would want to know if there’s an optimal size, or an adequate size where more coverage doesn’t improve anything.
