I don't think this method does much for an AEG motor. Most AEG motor's brushes are already set for the commutator so the water only cleans and remove the carbon. It's ok with a brand new brush that doesn't have the correct groove for the comm, but other than that, it's not necessary. The RC community been doing this for many years as they need the top peek power or a new brush is installed. I've tried it and didn't see much of an improvement. Plus, if you don't dry out the motor as soon as you're done, you could damage your motor beyond repairs. I just rebuild the motor instead of doing this.
