In a pinch I've used a foam brush to apply some catalyzed auto urethane to small parts (wooden deck sliders and the such). It worked pretty well actually. The final finish was quite smooth. It did go on thicker than spraying so it took longer to cure. I've yet to try it on anything larger. So the urethane would have have a chance to level out, you would probably want to use a slower reducer (for higher temperatures).
