Google it. It is a great material.

I have used this after I make plaster mountains. It covers up the cloth look of the plaster cloth.
Plus you can mix water based paint in it before application.

I also have used it on plain plywood to create a rough grass look. I made 4 different batches with 4 different green paint colors. It looked like a multicolored field when I finished. Then the circus moved in on top of the field. I suggest getting a large plastic bowl to mix the stuff. The bowl will be ruined for normal usage, but will work time and again for the fusion fiber.

Walthers, Inc.
