How to flood the entire lunar surfaces?

+0
−0

Given that the surface gravity on the Moon is a fraction of Earth and there is virtually zero atmospheric pressure but I still want to wet our beloved moon with whatever liquid that is known to science. It can be liquid nitrogen or a cocktail of acids etc, assuming the present day tech level and the only handwavium is awarded to transportation of the liquid and nothing else how can we cover the entire (at least 95% of lunar surfaces) with liquid solution so that the shallowest depth is about 1"‰m for at least 1 year? (I'm trying to figure out how the new tug of war between a planet and its moon will play out.)

Clarifications:

  • Money isn't an issue.
  • Foams are not allowed.
  • It can be any kind of liquid not necessary water
