"Woodland Scenic Smooth it"
Posted by TrainsRMe1 on Friday, October 13, 2017 10:11 PM

Hi Guys,

I have laid some smooth it down, for my intermodal yard, I  thought I would let it dry for a day, per instuctions, well, the next day, I went out to sand It, to get a smooth surface, but it was still damp,  now I do live in a damp climate (Oregon) would that have anything to do with it, or is it possible that my mixture could have been to thick????

 I think they used some on Chuck Sable's layout in the Rehab My Railroad MRVP series and it took some extra time to dry. High humidity will definitely extend drying time.

If you happen to have a dehumidifier I would put it to work.

I'm just a dude with a bad back having a lot of fun with model trains, and finally building a layout!
