Geoff, I have done the same thing, dipping into a can of lacquer and putting a drop over various dips in the finish and it works well. Give it a couple of days to dry as the stuff shrinks. With what you have you may need to do a couple dips and drips over time with sanding in between.
Patience my friend.
