Here's the video I watched to build mine, but they're all pretty much the same.
Don and Chris, I didn't really do anything special with the glue. I just put down some straight white glue, and gave it a couple quick sprays of water, then spread it with a crappy paint brush. I like that small amount of water for a couple reasons. First, it makes the glue spread a little smoother, and second the extra moisture may help with the electrical conductivity. Remember, we need a ground path to to complete the "static circuit".
As far as how to apply static grass, this was my how to video of choice. He's a bit long winded on the front end, but when he does the demo, he has nice technique.
When it comes to layering, I didn't use the spray bottle like he did, because he's right, when you put a white glue mixture in it, you really have to clean it well or it'll never work again. I just used the same paint brush, that had been soaking in water, knocked off the excess water, and dabbed the glue right on top of the partially dried previous layer. The new longer material stuck just fine, and looked great.
