Default Is it ok to go to greaseless after wet sanding?

I am polishing a valve cover and there are a few surface cracks probably due to heat expansion. I was planning on sanding at 320 and 400 dry and then wet sanding to 600 or 1000. Is it ok after wet sanding to go to a buffing wheel with 180 and 240 greaseless or should I go right to emery and then tripoli after the wet sanding?
Thanks a lot everyone.
ps. with the greaseless, I have a quick question (might sound stupid), are you supposed to let it dry on the wheel before using it or can you just roll the wheel into it and apply right away?
