These are the grits I used to polish the Petoskey stone beads. This is wet/dry sandpaper available at automotive stores.

This is the procedure I used in the Lot-O tumbler for the unakite beads:
2 TBSP 220 grit silicon carbide for two days
1/2 tsp 500 grit aluminum oxide and 1 TBSP borax for three days
1/2 tsp aluminum oxide polish and 1 TBSP borax for two days

- KINGSLEY NORTH -
Kingsley North is a lapidary store in Michigan's U.P. They make a great cab machine and sell many other brands too. They have a huge selection rough rock, tumblers, grit, jewelry supplies etc. at good prices. I buy most of my coarse grit from here in 45 lb. bags. It's the best price I have found. If you buy using the following link, I make a small commission.
