Cerium Oxide paste with a poishing wheel/pad to finish.

Finished the transmission fluid change (had to let the transmission cool down). Reset adaptations and away we went. Smoooooth shifting transmission. No issues.

I know 3.0 manuals exists but I thought 4.4 manuals weren't offered in the US.

They weren't. Only way to get a manual is to do a transmission change -- not for the faint of heart (or wallet). My point was in my signature it says I have a 4.4i, so I figured everyone would know it's an automatic.
