Use the shop vac instead.
This is a BAD idea. Any vacuum not specifically
designed to suck wet stuff will likely pass
the air right over the motor. Water in a motor is
a bad idea.
However, many (if not most) "shop vacs" ARE specifically made to suck not only wet stuff but straight water. They do not pass intake air over the motor like many household vacuums do. (The first 50 or so shop vacs on HD's web site all say "Wet/Dry".)
So, you're agreeing!
