3M Wetordry products are designed to be used in both wet and dry applications. Unlike cloth-backed products, Wetordry products have a smooth mesh backing that is lighter in weight. This makes them ideal for lighter applications such as finishing and paint prep. However, these types of applications often produce a lot of dust, which can clog the abrasive points and create an inferior work environment. To minimize these effects, it is recommended to sand with water or a coolant to rinse away dust and cutting debris from the workpiece and the abrasive surface.
One example of a Wetordry product is the 3M Wetordry Cloth Roll 281W. This cloth roll is designed to be used with water, allowing users to rinse areas of the workpiece during finishing. By preventing dust and debris from clogging the abrasive, it helps to keep the cutting fast and efficient. In essence, it combines the benefits of wet and dry sandpaper into a single product. The 3M Wetordry Cloth Roll 281W is particularly well-suited for use on e-coat primer and wood, but it can also be used dry for finishing metal and gel coats. In the marine industry, it is commonly used for sanding old finishes, fine feather edging, and surface work.
The Benefits of Aluminum OxideThe key to a consistent and sharp abrasive is the mineral used in its construction. The 3M Wetordry Cloth Roll 281W is made with aluminum oxide mineral, which is a popular choice among industrial professionals. This mineral offers a fast cut-rate and long life, making it highly desirable for various applications. Unlike traditional natural minerals, aluminum oxide is tough and durable, self-fracturing to expose fresh cutting edges. This allows it to maintain its effectiveness for longer periods of time. Its fast cut-rate, hardness, and strength make it suitable for a wide range of materials in both woodworking and metalworking, including ferrous alloys.
