About 2 weeks ago, I bought at A C Moore an aerosol spray can of Elmer's Craft Bond, not knowing what I would specifically use it for.
Many of you experiened modelers may already know what I'm about to say. This is a great product for making O Scale trees. I had some trees that were becoming a bit threadbare, probably losing some of their flocking from being jostled. Just spray on the glue, which dries clear, on the bare spots, sprinkle on the flocking, and then spray on a final light coat of glue. I believe Elmer's Craft Bond is stronger than typical diluted white glue applied with a spray bottle. It took many hand washings for me to get the excess Elmer's product off that stuck to my fingers. LOL.
Here are some photos of my improved green trees in Spring and Summer seasons:
The next 2 pictures show are before and after shots of the same homemade trees:

After, showing the same trees in a different position with new green flocking attached with Elmer's Craft Bond:
It was great fun and very satisfying bbndoing this scenery work. Arnold
