Hi
i am using STANGER' schnee spray and i am happy with that. however if you will use it for large areas i can offer you baking soda+ hair spray... some modelers use powder , but never tried. Good luck...

I use a pump sprayer water and white glue mixture (50/50) -- a few misty sprays and sprinkle with Sweet N'Low. If you want a snowdrift or build up area use Styrofoam or Water Putty/Plaster to build up area first, then same procedure.

I've used Woodland Scenics snow. Just spray on some adhesive glue and sprinkle the stuff on just like it would fall naturaly. If you need a deeper layer spray on some more glue and sprinkle another coat. To make it clump or clog up in tracks mix it with white glue and just put it in place.

Woodland Scenics "Snow" is also known as microballoons....but a lot more expensive because it has the words Woodland Scenics in front of it. You can usually get a 5 gallon pail of it for as much as a small bag of it costs by Woodland Scenics.....look in any hardware store or better yet a plastic supply shop.

I've had great sucess using a "mist sprayer" that contains a thinned mix of water and white glue... and then I use an old fashioned "flour sifter" like your granny used to make biscuits, and filled it with cheap and easily found 'HydroCal" powder.... the affects are astounding, especilly if you want to show snow that has been driven in a direction.... instead of a full even coat in all areas.
