• Precision 60-Grit Silicon Carbide Industry-Standard Abrasive For Stage 1 Grinding: Formulated with uniform 60-grit silicon carbide particles calibrated for consistent hardness and cutting action. Each works at the same rate throughout the tumbling cycle, delivering even shaping on agates, jasper, quartz, tiger eye, obsidian, petrified wood, and most popular tumbling stones without over-grinding or uneven surfaces.
• Stage 1 Complete In 710 Days Here's How To Know It's Ready: Run Stage 1 for 7 to 10 days depending on stone hardness and starting surface condition. When all sharp points are gone and stones feel smooth and rounded with no jagged edges, they're ready for Stage 2. Harder stones like jasper may need a full 10 days; softer materials typically finish sooner.
• 5lb Processes Up To 80 Lbs Of Rough Stones Use About 1 Oz Of Grit Per Pound Of Rock: At approximately 1 oz of silicon carbide per pound of stones, one 5LB bottle supports up to 80 pounds of Stage 1 processing roughly 20 full loads in a standard 4LB rotary tumbler. Adjust amounts based on your stone type and personal preference. Far more value than 1LB single-use options. Store unused grit sealed and dry silicon carbide stays fully effective between uses.
• Compatible With Rotary And Vibratory Tumblers No Special Setup Required: Works with all standard rotary barrel tumblers including KomeStone K1, K1 Pro, G1, G2, G3, and most popular hobbyist models. Also suitable for vibratory tumblers when used at the correct grit-to-stone ratio. Just add stones, water, grit, and burnishing media no special preparation or equipment needed.
• Step 1 Of 4 In The Komestone Rock Polishing System Build The Complete Sequence: Stage 1 (60-grit coarse) shapes the stone. Stage 2 (150-grit medium silicon carbide) smooths the surface. Stage 3 (600-grit fine silicon carbide) creates a pre-polish sheen. Stage 4 (1200-grit aluminum oxide) delivers the final brilliant finish. Each stage is designed to work in sequence using all four ensures professional-quality polishing results from rough stone to finished gem.
