Hi Guys,
Back in my prehistoric model RR days I had a recipe for preserving natural green growies for use in dioramas, layouts, etc. The main ingredient was glycerin, but I can't remember the other stuff (alcohol?) or the proportions. I really prefer natural shrubs, plants etc over PE, so any help you can give me will be greatly appreciated.
Thanks for listening!

Hi Jerry

As far as I know you need just glycerine and water mixed with a ratio of 1/10 (1 unit glycerine-10 units water)
anyway I think you'll find useful this link
