What is the micron size of German X3 (brand) Aluminum Oxide (Alu-Ox) polish?

I think that X3 is 3.0 microns in size, but i am not sure!
Thank you!

Most of the "tumbling grade" AO's are 3-4 micron.

Greeting Ladies & Gents, due to a process of elimination i got some Lortone 1 micron polish &
it is much larger than the German X3 polish, it is most likely 0.3 micron essentially Linde-A!

johnjsgems: John it was obtained from Scottish Minerals & Lapidary Club in Leith, Edinburgh,
Scotland; the club is primary faceting & secondary cabbing oriented only!

Which now closes this thread!
