Wet and dry sandpaper

The Aimchamp sandpaper is a really special type of material that people use to smooth and polish surfaces. Made by covering a thick piece of paper or cloth with coarse grains that work to polish various surfaces. The two types of sandpaper you can choose from are wet and dry. So let’s discuss the differences between these two types and how to use each properly to aid you get the best results.  

The most widely used sand paper in projects is the dry Sanding Disc. You will most commonly see it used to sand furniture, walls, and other places in preparation for painting or staining. Look at sandpaper - when you touch it, its dry - it works on "dry condition" - therefore it is rough. It has various levels of roughness referred to as grits. The grit number tells you whether the sandpaper is coarse or fine. This means that the sandpaper is coarser and will take more material away at a time. Conversely, the higher the grit number, the smoother the sandpaper and the finer the finish it will provide.

Advantages of Wet Sandpaper

Aimchamp Wet sandpaper is yet another that’s designed to be used with water. Wet sandpaper is used when people need something to be extremely smooth. This includes such things as vehicle bodies, boats, and airplanes. Wet sandpaper is finer than dry sandpaper. With water, it can make the surface slippery, which keeps scratches from showing. Like dry sandpaper, wet sandpaper is available in different grits, allowing you to select the appropriate one for your task. 

For this reason, you will be able to create a much smoother finish with wet sandpaper than dry sandpaper. The wash phase lubricates the surface, reducing scratches and preventing dust or debris from clogging the sandpaper. That is what makes wet sandpaper highly effective for sanding different materials, including metal, plastic, and wood. Wet sandpaper is often the best option when you want a firm, with a shiny well-polished look on your project.
