What happens here

The aerator is the small cap at the very end of the faucet spout where the water comes out. Dry it off with a paper towel for a better grip, then unscrew it by turning it counter-clockwise. If it's too tight, you might need pliers, but be sure to wrap the aerator in a cloth to prevent scratching it.

Goal: Faucet Removal (Standard)

Tools and materials

What they say

Hide

I've noticed that the faucet on both sides hot and cold barely comes out the first place I'm going to go is right to where the water comes out This is actually called the air raider. So this mixes water and air this air raider and if you take something you dry it off You're usually able to get under there spin counterclockwise and remove that And it looks like something fell into the sink So this right here actually had a little pebble in it
