It doesn't. It soaks in. It's very fast to do. But keep telling us
about things of which you know nothing as usual.

Buy a pump up garden sprayer, fill with water, pump up, set spray to
fine, spray large surface in a minute. Wait a few minutes to check
surface, spray again if required and then begin painting normally

I have wondered if that would work.

All you have managed to achieve is to thin the first coat of paint
if it is emulsion. You'll now need a second coat to get good coverage!

The paint isn't thinned at all, the water soaks into the board. It just stops the suction.
