slathered
Generously applied coating
Slathered means spread thickly or liberally, usually something wet or viscous: toast slathered with butter, slathered in sunscreen.
The word suggests generous, even excessive application—not a delicate touch but a heavy coating.
It can extend beyond physical spreading: a performance slathered with sentimentality.
