Create Lakes, ponds and small streams - in just a few steps!
Artificial Water is ideally used for the creation of water surfaces on ponds, lakes and brooks.
When using Artificial Water, the substrate must be flat and watertight. If needed, you can also seal it with NOCH Modelling Compound.
To design a true-to-life body of water, the stream or lakebed is first coloured with the Waters Colour Set. To imitate the depth of the water, you should ensure that the colour gradient becomes darker from the outside in. To further enhance this effect, you can glue small stones and sand to the subsoil on the bank. Once everything is dry, you can begin working with Artificial Water.

The Artificial Water is poured into the lakebed approx. 2–3 mm deep in one go. The drying time is about 24 hours. During the hardening process, the Artificial Water loses roughly 50% of its volume so that a water level of 1–1.5 mm results.
Pouring on further material is not recommended, as this can lead to the lowest water layer becoming cloudy.
