Default Tumbling Media question

I just picked up a used Lyman tumbler from a guy and in the box with it was a box of steel polishing media and a box labeled super moly. I know the moly is for coating bullets but what is the steel polishing media for?

The steel polishing media is to be used with the moly. Mix bullets, media, and moly (in very small amounts) in the vibro and give it an hour...vibro until you get the results wanted.
