margerisons Posted December 23, 2008 Author Share Posted December 23, 2008 a grey blend of fine ballast all you do is spray down the work with model cement/glue and then put on the blend and then wait to dry http://www.woodlandscenics.com/items.cfm/BallastAndCoal?ShowAll=1#B1393 i get mine in the shakers there's a lot of different sorts there mine is B1393 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
