Making Road Surfaces On Layout

If you want to save some money building roads try this. Use wet/dry fine grade sandpaper for sections of roadway. You simply rub a couple of sheets together to remove the perfect glassy finish and make the road even smoother. Even the dust adds to the look, but you might need to spay a light coat of matt varnish to stop the dust getting where you don’t want it.
