Answer: 2
Emery is a polishing agent that can be used to polish amalgam restorations. It is a natural abrasive material that is relatively safe for metal surfaces and does not cause significant wear on the amalgam. Garnet, silex, and alumina are also abrasive materials, but they are less commonly used for polishing amalgam due to potential issues with scratching or wearing down the restoration.
