Not rated Rating details

AK Interactive AK8257 Desert Soil is a natural loose material designed for desert roads, dry soil, road edges, arid landscapes, and dusty bases. The combination of soil and fine gravel helps create a dry, parched surface without the need to mix several materials.

Recommended Procedure

  1. First, prepare the terrain shape and paint the base in a complementary shade. This way, any gaps between the grains will not be noticeable once dry.
  2. Apply white glue, diluted white glue, or AK118 to the selected area. For larger rocks, work in smaller sections.
  3. Sprinkle the material irregularly and press it down lightly. Once dry, brush off or vacuum up any excess.
  4. Once cured, you can even out the surface with pigment, a wash, a dry brush, or very thin acrylic paint.

For stronger adhesion, we recommend AK Interactive AK118 Gravel & Sand Fixer.
