Does HSN 6805 cover abrasive powder sold loose, without any backing material?

HSN 6805 specifically covers abrasive powder or grain on a base — textile material, paper, paperboard, or other materials — whether or not cut to shape, sewn, or otherwise made up. This is the sandpaper/abrasive-sheet category, not loose abrasive powder or grit sold without a backing.
