I honestly don't know what the purpose of step number four is. I'm assuming it's to sterilize but I really don't know. The instructions I found on how to press told me to do it so I did! Here is also another method:

you clean out the pan to remove oils so the pigment stays in the pan when it dries. i will warn you that shadows pressed with straight alcohol tend to be brittle and hard, but the EZ press medium works really well!
