I assumed in other post you knew what one was. All the term "wet clutch" means is that the whole clutch assembly is bathed in the engine oil.

A dry clutch (like in automobiles) is not. That's why you can use synthetic oils in cars but not in motorcycles.

Ones without friction modifiers in them you can so I assume the product your using doesn't have any in.
