"A little ___'ll do ya!" (Brylcreem slogan) (3)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

dab

(Other definitions for dab that I've seen before include "Apply light touches of colour to the fish" , "Expert; light touch" , "Fingerprint - fish" , "Small North Atlantic flatfish" , "Fish; small amount" .)

I've seen this clue in The New York Times.
