Correct me if I'm wrong since I have never flown a jet but I thought with a wett or contaminated rwy, your brake effectiveness will be less due to the water (wheels not contacting rwy initially) Therefore on TD use max amount of reverse and spoilers to put the weight on the wheels. Then apply the brakes...
