As always, I appreciate your test and writings.
Have you tested one of the finer belts in the Scotch Brite family - the Blue is about 150+ grit (fine)?
The latest addition/edition is to 3M SB family is called "talc" and it is very very fine and a different structure. Like short rabbit hair?

The Shadow is confused in ref to SB ratings
Front Color
Blue, Brown, Gray, Maroon
Grade
CRS, MED, SFN, VFN
https://www.knifemaking.com/category-s/847.htm I, am confused please call Jantz and ask about what color matches what appx grits? This is Eclipse Day - that may be my problem not my age?
This is what the talc belt looks like on a wheel http://www.trick-tools.com/2_x_48_Polish...2SBP_S_520
Our Moderator Mark had or has a 1x42 talc
Fellow member Don B had or has a 1x42 talc
If they are not using or testing their belts they may share? Who knows? Only The Shadow knows.
More in ref to Scotch Brite Belts
I, am more confused: depends on what grit and or something? The Shadow say he does not know!

Scroll down to the second chart Scotch Brite Abrasive Belt Equivalent Grits
This chart appears to be more in line with my thoughts -
Trick Tools
rates the brown SB belt as coarse
rates the blue SB belt as fine
in reference to what?
