Okay, Joe, quick question, the answer to which may be of interest to others following this forum. <br /> <br />I have been trying your dirt recipies. Observation: they darken when wet, but when they dry, they are ALMOST the same as before wetting. Your experience too? My real question: how thick do you lay it on? I tried several thin layers and that seemed to work pretty well. On one of the layers, I got some dark brown spots. I think it was brown Tempera paint that had not been mixed real well with everything else, although I would tell you it looked mixed. I supposed it could also have been the water (maybe a few bigger drops and less mist than usual). Anyway, I for one would appreciate a little elaboration on your technique. Project now is to get dirt down where I will be placing dirt road to stock tank (watering hole for cattle). Thanks in advance. <br /> <br />John
