Pro Grass Micro Applicator

Pro Grass Micro Applicator

Used to apply the grasses to the scenery.

How it works :

Each type of grass, or a blend of grasses, is added to the hopper (the lid is removed by unscrewing, and then re-shut), and the unit switched on.

As the individual filaments of nylon grass pass through the grid in the lid an electrical charge causes them to stand up straight, thus landing on the glue upright and creating the effect of the real things.

Careful blending of the colours and lengths can create some very realistic results indeed! 

Simple to use :

• Glue the first layer of static micro fibre ‘grass’ to your layout using the special basing glue.

• Subsequent layers can be fixed with the layering spray.

• Connect and turn on the micro-applicator, then move it back and forth above the grass and ‘hey-presto’ the static charge makes the grass stand up just like the real thing.

Powered by a 9v battery (not supplied), the crocodile clip is used to "earth" the unit before use.

 There’s a saying…”the right tool for the right job” and this is very true in the modelling world.

This may explain why there are a vast number of specialist tools available, ensuring that you can find the one that you are looking for to make the job easier, or to achieve a better end result.

One way to create realistic grass on your layout is to use static grass.

Static grass has to be dispensed onto the layout though an applicator such as this product from Peco.

The applicator uses static electricity to make the ‘grass’ stand upright when it lands on the layout.

Use a suitable glue to fix the static grass in place such as GM169 Static Grass Glue or PSG-10 Static Grass Basing Glue.
