DONT use the supplied brush, either buy a very fine artist one, or use a cocktail stick

yeh completely or you will pull old paint out, you can mix the paint in with the lacquer and not need to top off, but i would test first, you may find you need a secon paint application though as the paint can sink (dependant on hole size), below is a guide to help you

The link says use fairy liquid. I would use a "bar" of soap as that  cloggs the "grit" up even further and makes the wet & dry smoother, less abrasive.

Nice link 182_blue
