[quote]QUOTE: <i>Originally posted by dave9999</i> <br /><br />...I have a couple of containers of the WS static grass and have tested by simply <br />sprinklng it over thin glue... it worked okay, but I would like it to stand up a little better. <br /> <br />I would say that better than half of it stood up while the rest layed over. I'm going to use <br />lots of static grass on the new layout, but I want it to look like the real thing. [/quote] <br /> <br /> Dave. <br /> Maybe try a thicker or tackier glue like matt medium. Or let the white glue sit up a little longer to the point it's just sticky enough to hold the flocking but not wet enough to let the grass fall over. <br /> In the article on the Noch tools, the author said he had better results with the shaker bottle half full. <br /> Just for the heck of it, charge up a piece of plastic by rubbing a cotton cloth just out of the dryer back and forth vigorously. Or even a balloon rubbed on your arm. And hold it just a few inches over the flocking. Try charging up the shaker bottle too. <br /> <br /> <br /> Good luck to you too! <br />
