The choice between wet or dry sanding and polishing is completely dependent on your personal preference. Some individuals choose to do a bit of both by starting with wet and switching to dry; however, we do not recommend this because the slurry created by wet sanding consists of abrasive particles that affect the process. Plus, you’ll still have to clean up the slurry in between the sanding and polishing stages which prolong the timeframe of the project. Not only will it take more time and effort, but you won’t end up with the same high standard finish.
Thankfully, with the advancements in technology, there is no longer an advantage to the wet process.
