Collins Doesn't do Savage Frontier
Testing - part 3... the varnished phase
Left = Time Delay seal spray. Right = Immediate seal spraySo Facebook suggested adding in a layer of polyeutherane varnish to put a waterproof layer between the dyed flock and the snow flock.
I have no idea what is in this can of varnish but its what I had on hand and is easily available for me so I used that.
I did two tests here. one where I sprayed varnish and immediately sprinkled snow and sealed with PVA (Right hand side) and one where I had a time delay of 2 hours between spraying varnish and adding snow and sealing it (left hand side)
As you can see, the left hand side is still wet ion this image and the dye is still leaching out into the snow for the 3 geek gaming scenics foam flocks.
My next step is to change the material I am working with. Will likely pick up some more woodland scenics foam flocks and see how they work out.
