What happens here
For a final check, the presenter uses the wire brush once more to remove any stubborn, dried paint. He then continues the patting motion in clean water until the brush releases no more paint into the water. To dry the brush, he demonstrates a technique of lightly hitting or 'kicking' the brush against his foot. This action helps to shake out remaining water and fluff up the bristles. He warns against hitting too hard to avoid bending the ferrule. Finally, he recommends storing the clean and fluffed brush in its original paper case to help it retain its shape for future use.
Goal: Perform a final scrub and patting in clean water. To dry, lightly 'kick' the brush against your foot to fluff the bristles and remove excess water. Store the brush in its original paper case to maintain its shape.
