I put it on with my index finger, and wipe it off with the same digit. Sometimes a light swipe with a sponge works well too for getting it off the bricks.

To use it as mortar do you spread it on a brick wall and then wipe it off after a couple of minutes so only the mud between the bricks remain? cheers ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ To: [email protected] From: [email protected] Date: Fri, 25 May 2012 11:01:16 -0500 Subject: Re: {S-Scale List} wallboard mud ALEX: I use drywall mud for brick mortar. Works well with a little patience. Of course, reading between the lines, it appears you might have enough for all the modelers in Canada and then some.

One idea is to create blobs of it, let dry and then paint in rock colors. Or break up the blobs to create small rock and boulders and colour. Any benefit to this. Better idea with what do with pail. It would be worth keeping even if the content is useless. cheers
