Wet Vs. Dry? When should you use the wet type instead?
1833371
Let me try to help. I use the wet type wherever there is any application where the wet won't bother anything because you can get more of it where you need it. I use the dry type where the wet type just won't do. For example, I use the dry type on saw blades to keep them moving smoothly without gumming up. You can actually improve the "horsepower" of many cutting tools like this (saw blades). If I used the wet type, I would get stains on the wood that I am cutting. Hope that helps.

It is easier to use wet. It can be used both ways though just make sure if it is used dry the kids have on more than just a bathing suit.

That's a personal choice, honestly. I found that it took a really long time to dry when we used it on a living room chair. Couldn't sit on it until the next day, but it wasn't outright soggy - just damp for a long time.

I've never used it in "wet/humid weather". I'm sure it'll dry quickly as it is very thin.

either but I've found I get the best results if my hair is damp, not wet, not dry. But...you can still get decent results with either wet or dry hair. Wet, of course, takes a little longer. I use the larger brush almost all the time and love it. This is my second one; the first one I had for at least 5 years, maybe 7 and only replaced it because the cord that attaches to the base of the unit frayed. But 5 to 7 years? I think that's a pretty good run.

No, it is a wet application. It works better than the dry application in my opinion, just be aware of the concerns I stated in my review.

Hi, While the Buccaneer could theoretically be used dry, we do not recommend doing so. It works better wet, and the water in the splash area helps balance the product.

I use it dry, even when they are wet. I have used it for 6 months so far, and no issues.

I used mine in several different directions, and it worked very well. In fact, I just bought a second one. I used mine dry the first time, and then tried a little bit of water. It worked well both dry and damp. Perhaps the manufacturer can answer your question. I found them very easy to communicate with.

Our product was dry after reasonably heavy rain. Hope that helps with your decision process !

No! I would highly discourage you from using that one! They should always come dry.

It is great both ways. In summer months we use it with water. But it needs time to dry before packing away. If it isn't that hot outside we use it without water. My kids enjoy it just as much. We have been very happy with this purchase.

I have not had a problem with the wet on wet. A couple have a little play in the canvas but can be pulled tighter. Hope this helps.

Normally no, speaking for myself , cause i usually use it with dry fingers, but the more wet your hands are, the less resistance you'll find!

You can use it dry, hence dry heat. Or, you can spray some water on the pad then use it, hence moist heat.

You can use the same wet nuts. They work better when wet. I either soak mine in a jar and pour the whole contents into the laundry or add some warm water to a jar with nuts and let sit 5 min before adding to laundry. Not sure why they would have to dry when it says they work better wet? Works fine for me to use them back to back.

I normaly use it when lightly wet. But i have used it with just a bit moist hair and it works well. Cheers.
