Aggregate glue?

Has anyone used this stuff (or similar) from the garden centre when making scenery? Was thinking of giving it a go. Thought it could be useful for setting the piece before painting (though maybe not on exposed foam)?

I've thought about using some on the Romsey flint borders in the garden, but not for scenery. Doesn't watered down pva cut it for you?
 
How dare you they have this page assuring you it's not just PVA - https://easihold.com/blogs/news/is-easihold-pva-1 :)
I suspect it's a PVA with some additives like many wood working glues or higher quality PVAs. Although if the wretched stuff will spray neatly it could be worth it! - I never have much luck diluting mine (a 5L bottle from B&Q) and finding a spray bottle that doesn't clog. The next experiment will be one of the pressurised spray bottles. Most of the time I just pipette it on if going over stuff.

that doesn't eat foam?

I either use "construction adhesives" as they seem to be called in the UK - "no more nails" type things on cartridge gun format or UHU POR which is a contact adhesive that is designed for foams. There are some more expensive model making ones, but generally for terrain those work for me.

Can’t remember what mix Geek Gaming Scenics use for their spray?

I have half a memory of Luke saying that it was matte medium and PVA mostly? I'd not swear to that however. Woodland scenics have a similar one don't they. I guess there must be some extra additives in these to help them flow and not clog the spray bottles. Times like these I wish I was a chemist! We need to recruit a tame chemist to the forum!
