Extreme detail touch up.
Lets say that I have a very old screen printed logo that is damaged. What are some good ways to deposit the smallest quantities of paint in tiny drops and use high magnification to restore the logo. If you wanted to consistently apply a 0.2 mm dot of colored finish, how would you do it? What would be the viscosity of your paint and what you be your application tool?

What I've done is get one or two of those cheap plastic bristle brushes and remove all but one or two of the bristles.
It works quite well with model enamel on plastic models, I'm not sure what kind of finish you should use on a silkscreen logo.

Art supply stores sell very small brushes, but you have to thin the paint to prevent a blob getting picked up when you dip the brush into the paint/finish.
