I KNOW…Grass Mat is not the modeler’s choice…That being said, would you know of any product that can be applied to the mat to seal it i.e. something that will keep the grass from shedding? As always, many thanks.
Haven’t tried it, but my first thought was hair spray. Maybe just applying a matte medium or white glue solution, just as if it were ground foam on your layout surface.
Just my immediate thoughts. Try it, let us know.
Good luck,
Richard
I think cowman has your answer.
Though, I would not expect hairspray to hold firm forever, especially if rubbed. I would use a spray glue solution or spray matte medium to hold fast and firm. It may give either a glossy look or a dull look to the grass though.
Just my thoughts, too.

Thanks guys.
How about a heavy spray of Krylon clear matte spray? It’s a lot bigger can than using a lot of small cans of Testors Dullcote.
I used the grass mat on my first layout. I don’t think it would shed unless to rub it quite hard. It’s almost like a fuzzy wallpaper when new. I wouldn’t worry about it.
I used the Busch brand on my non-permanent layout and had no trouble with shedding even though I vacuumed the layout fairly regularly.
I tried it. It didn’t shed. But I didn’t like it anyway. I tore it up and threw it away.
