I've been slowly building up lacquer in the pits shown above. I am using a small artist brush and apply 2 small drops, 20 minutes apart, per pit. Then wait a couple of days and repeat. I think what is shown in the photo below is the last application I'll need. I know it doesn't look very pretty but I've already filled smaller pits and was able to sand and blend things in fine. Once I'm done sanding these areas smooth I'll sand the entire cabinet and then apply the final coats of clear.
