When a polyurethaned floor (for example) has a small mark that needs touching up, what's the recommended procedure? I've sanded the spot with 1000 grit wet&dry, and tried applying a dab of poly with a small brush. The flaw in that approach was immediately obvious, since the newly applied poly surface was raised and clearly not going to blend in. I wiped it off with turps, back to the drawing board. It seems that it might be necessary to thin the poly in order to be able to feather the edges. If so, in what proportion, and if not, what else?
