My old-school AWC .45 suppressor is significantly quieter when wet. I've used both water and Ideal wire pulling gel. It lasts about 6 shots, then gets progressively louder until 10, when it shoots at its normal level.
In playing with a couple of newer .22 suppressors, shooting them wet is both quieter and more importantly, will get rid of first round pop.
Theoretically, if one was to want to dispatch a nuisance or pest animal in town, shooting a wet suppressor is the way to go.
