Hope you find this video helpful. I'd never seen or heard of this method before.

That is something I could have done with seeing about three guitars back.

I've not seen that method before. I have certainly experienced the pain of fixing a run though!

Seems like a great tip. Thanks for sharing the video!

Useful. Though less easy to use on rounded surfaces, where most of my drips happen.

Always remember to let the finish harden properly first before trying any remedial action. A blob of finish will take a lot longer to dry than a thin coat will, so I'd leave it a couple of days (which is why I normally don't bother to fix runs until I've done the last of that particular coat). Try and remove a blob too soon, and the soft finish in the middle can rip out and leave a big pit in the finish instead (which could go through right to the wood).
