Is silicon carbide or aluminum oxide dust in the air dangerous to pets in trace amounts?

I live in an apartment, and don’t have a basement or shed I can run my Rock Tumbler in. How worried do I have to be about trace amounts of silicon carbide or aluminum oxide grit getting into the air and poisoning my cat? I’m actually running the Tumbler in the bathroom where his litter box is, and even though it’s a totally sealed machine, I’m worried that even small amounts that get loose may somehow leak out of the machine and will cause him to get cancer. Or when I take the barrel out to do the rinse, that some of the grit will end up in the air. I plan to wipe down surfaces and vacuum after rock washes. But I feel really limited because there’s no room in my house I can go that my cat doesn’t end up in at some point, so I’m not sure where to do my washes. I’m planning to keep the slurry water in a sealed bucket that I will dump outside in the street.

Silicon Carbide for Migaki Finish

I need to restore the migaki finish on my Takamura Guyto R2 210mm.

I just thinned and roughened the finish (after over polishing it). I would like to get back to the migaki finish.

I read that a mixture of F360 Silicon Carbide and windex would be good for that.

I've googled and tried to figure out what grit that is... 80 is what I seem to read, but that seems awfully low... could it possibly be 80?

If this F360 silicon carbide is the best/right thing to use, do you have a brand or website to buy from that you could recommend?

Or, is there something better to use to restore the migaki finish (the current surface was finished with 800 grit sandpaper).

Thanks, Jeff

Will be buying a stone set for my tsprof. Is there a noticable difference in performance ? The cost difference is minimal.

Coating nylon monofilament with abrasive material like Silicon Carbide or Aluminium Oxide

I am looking for a way to coat nylon mono filament with abrasive grit.

Can anyone suggest a suitable process for this? I've thought about using adhesive but not sure what kind of adhesive will work best for this, superglue or epoxy adhesive.

The aim is to use abrasive line for cutting soft material like brass or aluminium thin wire. Ofc there are better ways to cut thin wires but for this experiment I must use abrasive + plastic composite.
