Wets (8)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

moistens

'wets' is the definition.
(moistening is a kind of wetting)

This is the entire clue.

(Other definitions for moistens that I've seen before include "Waters" , "Dampens" , "Makes damp, perhaps lips" .)

I've seen this clue in the Sydney Morning Herald.
