I once used a jug of the "ready to use" WS scenic cement and then, when the scenery, ballast, and anythihg else either crumbled or just came loose, re-did it using a 1:3 mixture of latex matte varnish (Liquidtex or similar). I'd never waste money on the pre-packaged, pre-mixed stuff. Instead, send me your spare money.. A similar ratio mixture of H20 and while glue will also work.. I put a drop or two of dish detergent in the matte medium/white glue mixture also. In each case, mist the ballast or scenery well with wet water or rubbing alcohol, drrbble on the adhesive, leave it alone over night and enjoy well-anchored scenery the next morning with no adhesive showing. If anything does come loose, a drop of white glue on the offending part followed by misting with alcohol/wet water will set it for good. <br /> <br />All I use now is the home-made adhesive. No problems. <br /> <br />Jus
