Having some past involvement in the carbon fiber industry, my view is:
Dry/Wet carbon are not technical terms and are often used loosely to mean different things. It often refers to pre-preg carbon vs laying of resin over fiber through a "wet" process. The former can strictly control the resin % and tend to be lighter. It also costs more because you have to store it in requisite conditions and it expires in a few months. Sometimes, people use these terms loosely to refer to glossy/matt finish. They are totally different things. Carbon out of the modes generally looks like crap. The finish (whether glossy or matt) requires additional steps of polishing and painting.
