Your first step will be learning to dry it and keep it dry. I can recommend a scale that can resolve to at least 0.1g so you can measure the weight loss while drying. This will help in seeing when it's sufficiently dry (put it in dryer and weigh it every hour) and if it took moisture again.

And the surface quality will be enhanced with dry filament.
