The verdict
Same grit. Very different conversation.
The Wetordry sheet goes on wet and gives you total control over pressure and stroke — the manual option for people who want to feel every pass. The Trizact disc goes on a random orbital and runs consistent pyramid-cut grain edge to edge, letting the machine do the work evenly. Both land at 3000. The question is who's holding the tool.
Pick 3M if
Wet sanding by hand. You want to feel the difference between each pass.
Pick 3M if
