Silicon carbide sandpaper removes material more quickly than aluminum oxide but doesn't last as long. Use it on wood, plastic and metal for tasks such as rough-sanding, removing paint or rust, and sanding between coats when finishing. Use it on drywall to smooth joints. Silicon carbide products has a waterproof backing that you can use for wet-sanding, which is a good technique for minimizing scratches when applying liquid to lubricate the work surface. Wet-sanding also helps to prevent the sandpaper from clogging with dust, removing loose abrasive particles and reducing airborne dust.
