3M Wetordry Sandpaper
3M Wetordry Sandpaper has long been a great choice for auto repair jobs – there’s no need to spend extra time switching sandpaper between wet sanding and dry sanding. A full range of grades features silicon carbide abrasives mounted on flexible, waterproof paper for consistently excellent results. Wetordry Sandpaper can be used by hand or for machine sanding.
One Sandpaper for Multiple Auto Body Jobs
Featuring waterproof paper backing, 3M Wetordry Sandpaper has been a trusted resource in automotive repair since the 1920s. It delivers true versatility – even if you’re wet sanding one area and dry sanding the next. Choose from a complete range of sandpaper grits for jobs ranging from shaping body filler to final paint touchups.
Why Wetordry?
Wet sanding is generally done during the more refined stages of body repair. Dry sanding tend to remove stock from the surface faster, and saves you from having to continually dry the surface – you can instantly check the progress of your work. 3M Wetordry Sandpaper saves you time and hassle right from the start.
Details
- Use for wet sanding and dry sanding without switching sandpaper
- Full range of grades is ideal for aggressive or refined auto sanding
- Silicon carbide abrasive self-fractures for longer life
- Flexible lightweight paper conforms to auto body surfaces for consistent finishes
- Delivers 10% smoother finish vs. conventional 3M sandpaper
- Use as part of the 3M Body Repair System
Silicon Carbide – Sharp Abrasive with a Refined Touch
3M Wetordry Sandpaper in finer grits features silicon carbide – a synthetic mineral that is very sharp and commonly used for low-pressure applications such as paint prep, smoothing of clear coats and as an alternative to compounding. Users only need to apply light pressure to obtain a consistent scratch pattern desirable for final finishing.
About the 3M Body Repair System
Even a small repair can seem complex at first. So 3M’s Body Repair System simplifies the entire automotive body repair process by dividing it into four stages:
- Stage 1 – Prepare. This stage includes pulling dents, removal of paint and rust and efficient, effective masking of the area.
- Stage 2 – Fill. This stage involves patching holes with reinforced filler and smoothing and shaping filler before painting.
- Stage 3 – Paint. This stage includes painting the area and blending and smoothing primer and paint.
- Stage 4 – Finish. The final stage for showroom-grade results: removing small defects, sealing and polishing clear coats and other painted surfaces.
Better Science for Better Sanding
An industry staple since the 1920s, 3M Wetordry Sandpaper was one of 3M's original sandpapers for auto care. Today, Wetordry features a variety of grits, premium abrasives and waterproof paper backing designed to make your auto body sanding more professional and more efficient. It can be used wet or dry – an excellent example of how 3M applies science to your life for easier, faster and better auto body repair.
3M supplies premium products such as abrasives, tapes, body fillers and tools for every stage. This system helps you work easily, efficiently and successfully across the entire body repair process.

Ideally you'll want to use a power drill, clamped into a vise, with the axle securely inserted into the drill head where a bit would normally go. Get yourself a fine tooth metal file plus a sheet of 500 or 600 grit sandpaper as well (not included in this set). Cut the 500 grit paper, plus each of the strips in this set into a few strips about 1/3 inch wide. I find it's best to mark the back of the paper in 1/3 inch increments and write down the grit number in each 1/3 inch section using a sharpie (e.g., 1000, 1500, etc.). This allows you to keep each strip straight. Also, be sure to wear protective eyewear and a dust mask to keep any metal dust or filings out of your eyes and lungs. Then it's pretty simple:
* secure the axle into the drill head with a little over 1/2 inch of axle exposed
* make sure drill is secure in vice
* start spinning drill
* use metal file to remove burrs and crimp marks (careful here not to file more than needed)
* stop drill and inspect axle to make sure imperfections are gone. Surface of axle should now be smooth but with fine scratches
* restart drill
* using the previously cut 1/3 inch wide strips, polish the axle (including inside of head) starting with 500 grit sandpaper, moving up to 1000, 1500, 2000 and finally 2500.
I find about 15-20 seconds with each grit works pretty well. The sandpaper holds together well wet or dry. Also, a single strip is usually good for two or three axles so a little sandpaper goes a long way. Put the unused paper into the pinewood derby box for next year (this is why labeling the individual strips of sandpaper is so important).
Be sure to inspect each axle (preferably with a magnifying glass) after you're done to make sure it is smooth and shiny. Some people continue the polish out to even higher grits (3000+) but I've found that 2500 grit works well. Using this technique, my son has been able to take home a few trophies for his pack and district derbies. I realize this may not apply to all prospective buyers of this sandpaper, but hopefully it's helpful to some!
