Fine Flock - Olive Grove

• Hobby-grade fine flock — ultra-fine particle size for smooth, seamless ground cover
• Warm olive grove tone — muted, earthy green finish for Mediterranean and military themes
• Perfect base layer — fills gaps between static grass, coarse flock, and tufts
• Easy to apply — glue, pour, press, shake off excess, and seal
• Compatible with all adhesives — PVA, basing glue, and scenic glue
• Excellent coverage — fine particle size goes further for efficient, cost-effective basing
• Suitable for 15mm, 28mm & 32mm scale miniature bases and terrain
• Available in 250ml and 500ml sizes

• Apply as a base layer first — apply Fine Flock over your painted base before adding static grass, tufts, or coarse flock for a natural, seamless finish
• Press firmly into wet glue — press the flock down gently after pouring to ensure good adhesion before shaking off the excess
• Use to fill gaps — sprinkle Fine Flock into gaps between larger scenic elements to create a smooth, consistent ground cover
• Mix with earth tones — blend Olive Grove Fine Flock with a sandy or brown fine flock for a varied, convincing arid scrubland base
• Apply to entire armies efficiently — the fine particle size provides excellent coverage, making it ideal for batch-basing large units quickly
• Layer with Olive Grove Coarse Flock — apply Fine Flock as the base layer, then add Olive Grove Coarse Flock on top for a rich, multi-tonal Mediterranean scene
• Seal thoroughly — apply scenic sealant or diluted PVA over dried flock to lock it in place for gaming use
• Drybrush for highlights — a light drybrush of pale khaki or bone over sealed flock adds sun-bleached highlights and depth

This product is ideal for miniature basing, wargaming terrain, and dioramas.

Materials Needed:

• Geek Gaming Scenics Fine Flock
• PVA Glue or Fast-Drying Basing Glue
• (Optional) Matt Scenic Sealant Spray
• Small paintbrush or applicator brush
• A container or tray to catch excess flock

Step 1: Prepare the Surface

1. Prep: Ensure the base, terrain piece, or diorama area is completely clean, dry, and free of dust.
2. Base Coat (Recommended): For best results, paint the surface underneath a color similar to the flock (e.g., a dark brown or dark green). This ensures any tiny gaps look like soil instead of bare plastic.

Step 2: Apply the Adhesive

1. Apply Glue: Use a paintbrush to apply a generous, but not overly thick, layer of PVA glue or basing glue over the entire area you wish to cover.
2. Ensure Evenness: Ensure the glue is spread evenly right up to the edges. Fine flock works best when it has a smooth, consistent layer of adhesive to settle into.

Step 3: Apply the Fine Flock

1. The Dip Method (For Bases): While the glue is still wet, gently press the base straight down into a container of the Fine Flock.
2. The Sprinkle Method (For Terrain): Liberally sprinkle or shake the Fine Flock over the wet glue until the entire surface is completely covered.
3. No Gaps: Ensure the flock covers every visible spot of glue.

Step 4: Secure and Cure

1. Remove Excess: Immediately after application, gently hold the base/piece over your collection tray and firmly tap the underside to shake off all loose, excess flock. Funnel this excess back into the original tub for later use.
2. Cure: Allow the piece to dry completely for a minimum of 6 to 12 hours (or until the glue is fully clear and set).

Step 5: Seal and Protect (Crucial for Wargaming)

1. Seal: Once dry, apply a coat of Matt Scenic Sealant Spray over the flocked surface using a spray bottle or pipette.
2. Cure Again: Let the sealant dry fully. This final step is essential to lock the fine particles in place, preventing shedding during handling and gameplay.
