Paint Set VALLEJO Vallejo Ammo: Terraform Premium Textures - Wet Sand

VALLEJO Vallejo Ammo: Terraform Premium Textures - Wet Sand is a ready-to-use modelling texture formulated to reproduce damp granular ground on dioramas, terrain pieces and scale models. The product gives a wet, compacted sand appearance with a fine grain structure that adheres to common modelling surfaces such as resin, plastic, wood and foam. Apply it where you need realistic beaches, riverbanks, muddy tracks or shoreline details prior to painting and weathering.

Advantages

This premixed texture saves preparation time by combining binder and textured aggregate in a single product that spreads smoothly and holds shape. It cures to a stable surface that accepts primers, paints and washes, enabling layered weathering and finishing. The formulation is designed for good adhesion to modelling bases and for retaining granular detail after drying, so it reproduces damp sand effects without additional additives.

Suitable for

• Creating beaches, tidal flats and shoreline details
• Simulating riverbanks, puddles and wet tracks
• Adding textured ground to diorama bases and vignette scenes
• Preparing surfaces for subsequent painting, washes and weathering

Key specifications

• Ready-to-use textured medium with wet sand appearance
• Fine granular texture that retains detail after drying
• Compatible with resin, plastic, wood and foam modelling bases
• Paintable and accepts primers, acrylic paints, washes and weathering pigments
• Dries to a stable, tactile surface suitable for further finishing

How to use

Stir the product gently before use to ensure uniform consistency. Apply with a spatula, palette knife or sculpting tool to the modelling base, building up thickness and contours as required. Smooth or texture the surface while the material is still workable to achieve the desired wet sand look. Allow to dry fully according to ambient temperature and humidity before priming and painting. Remove excess from tools with water prior to drying.

Usage recommendations

For best results, test adhesion on a scrap piece of the same base material. Apply thin layers and build up texture gradually to avoid shrinkage. Seal very porous bases with a primer or adhesive layer before applying the texture. After drying, use acrylic primers and paints designed for modelling to complete colour and weathering effects.
