I have purchased some thread lubricant. It is a liquid and in a small
plastic squeeze bottle. It is called Sewers Aid. It is a little
short on directions. How should I apply it to a spool of thread? I'm
trying to get the thread to feed smoothly to avoid skipped stitches.

Usually done with a lubrication box either magnetic or adhesive backed,
basically just a box with a felt pad in it. You could make shift something
with a piece of felt about 1/4" thick, use double face tape to fasten the
block to the machine in a place it will force the thread to run over it.
