If the performance is better on a sanded wet wing, my theory has been that
laminar flow might happen more easily over a sheet of water that is flexable
and easily conforming to the air flowing over it. Did you ever notice what
happens to a convertable top on a car when at cruise speed. I'm curious
about what happens to the drag on that car as compaired to a hard top.
Things to think about.
