Peter, we learned this one the hard way....
Spray the ross bed with plain grey primer before you spray it with stone paint.
That foam is very porous and you'll spray it with the stone paint, think you got it all and once it dries its full of white spots. You'll get a lot more mileage out of the expensive stone paint if you paint the foam grey first.
Also, if you paint the stone finish on real thick, its harder to fit the track into the roadbed (its a snug fit to begin with). We've painted tons of that stuff. Primer first is the way to go.
