    I used old towels and shirts dipped in a 3 dollar bag of quick crete. turned out great!!!

      Plaster if you want it light. Quick Crete sounds like some grippy surfaces. I'm thinking blue shop towels or muslin, cheese cloth might work.

    Great description of the process. You inspired this 70 year old to make an inside track in the barn. I love the modular design. The nice part is, every goof on my part will be intentional ( of course) which works for me.

    Other ideas to eliminate slippery areas, (1) Flex-Seal makes their rubberized products in a spray can, (2) Rustolium makes spray can ‘bed liner’ in different colors, and (3) textured spray paint in camo colors....

    One of the things I'm using on my layout is HO scale rocks,sand,gravel, and textured paint, then just add some flat based colors to keep it natural looking. Go to a train store or hobby lobby for bushes,trees and stuff.👍

    • @aquaticthumb5193
      @aquaticthumb5193 2 года назад

      Water down some white glue and sprinkle sand or color grout for texture. Another video said latex paint watered down in a spray bottle was fast and easy but used several layers. Maby this is power sprayer use time.

    Followed along with your build and made something very similar. The damn plaster cloth was hard to find up here though. Only the local Michaels Craft store carries, no where near as wide or long as the roll you had, but I just bought extra rolls and made it work! Any tips on adding a grippier texture? Does the paint help a good bit? I haven't got to the paint yet. I thought of maybe putting some flex seal on and then sprinkle sand, dirt or cat litter all over for some grip. Thanks for video!

    • @CCxRC
      @CCxRC  3 года назад +1

      You can paint in some sand to add some grip.
