Kit for applying a fluid onto a surface and method using the kit. The kit includes a fluid having a yield point, a fluid container having at least one opening, and an applicator element having one or more porous areas for applying the fluid to a surface. The applicator element is located on the at least one opening of the container. The at least one porous area of the applicator element is in contact with the fluid. The fluid wets the at least one porous area of the applicator element but does not leak out of it as long as the porous area is not in contact with the surface. A porosity of the at least one porous area of the applicator element is related to the yield point of the fluid or vice versa.
