Cabinet TOUCHUPS! The Art of Touch-Ups

What happens here

For touch-ups on the less visible backside of a door, or to fill holes from a previous hanging system, a wider artist's brush from a versatile set can be used. Dip the brush into the lacquer and apply it evenly across the surface. While this method will leave brush strokes, it's acceptable for areas that are not prominently displayed. The lacquer will self-level somewhat as it dries, but it will not achieve the smooth finish of a sprayed surface.

Goal: Touch up the back of a door or fill holes with lacquer using a wider artist's brush.
