Purchased swirl minimalist mixer basin tap - how can I clean the aerator at the end of the tap?
 
Usually the end of the spout unscrews revealing a filter /swirler inside.
The part below the arrow
You may have to turn the tap on after removing the spout end to force the filter out.

Rubber gloves give a better grip or a pair of these but because it is plastic go easy with the pressure applied.
