rewipe
Swab once more
To rewipe is to wipe again—a second pass at cleaning a surface or, more commonly, oneself after using the toilet.
The word appears in discussions of bathroom hygiene: I had to rewipe because the first attempt wasn't enough.
Also used for screens, counters, or anything requiring another cleaning pass.
