Post subject:  Filling after finishing

After shooting several coats of Nitro,I noticed a couple of very small holes in the Rosette, probably a couple of stray pores.I`m not sure I could even get a decent picture they are so small.Is it possible to fill these with CA,and if so should I wait until the Nitro cures? Or maybe I should try and drop fill with Nitro now and let it cure before rubbing out? Suggestions please.

What Todd said. For some reason CA tends to be visible under a nitro finish but works well as a filler for cat urethane.

My reason ... CA is too hard to use as a drop fill, its like a rock, then the nitro around it shrinks leaving witness lines, no matter how flat you have it sanded. its fine as a fill under the finish, or if you need to quickly fill something on the first coat, and then sand it back.
