rerinsing
Washing out again
Rerinsing is rinsing something again, typically to remove remaining soap, residue, or contaminants that the first rinse didn't clear: The dishes felt soapy, so I ended up rerinsing the whole load.
Common in contexts involving laundry, dishes, or any cleaning process where thoroughness matters.
