Dry sanding

Done for the same reason as wet-sanding, we occasionally use very fine grit sandpaper dry. This will usually be done to remove sags and runs, which are very high spots on the paint and require considerable work to flatten before the panel can be polished.

The advantage of dry sanding over wet sanding is you can better see what you are doing in. It is a technique we have sometimes had to resort to when removing contamination such as overspray and splatter from products that cannot be removed with chemicals, such as epoxy paint.
