Tips and Techniques
Second Floor (OPTION)
Molded-in ledges on interior of Front and Back Walls are designed to add a second floor.
Cut a piece of styrene approx. 2-28/32" x 3-13/16". Test fit and cut out a notch to clear the
lighting raceway. Paint interior and styrene a flat earth-tone shade.
Painting Tips
Colors are your choice, but we recommend natural brick colors such as rust, tan or other
earth tones.
Airbrush or Hand-brush Use enamel (solvent-based) or acrylic (water-soluble) flat finish paint.
Aerosol Use flat finish spray paint.
Weathering Techniques
Mortar Wash Create the look of brick mortar or add a weathered look (formula follows).
Lay building flat so wash spreads evenly. Using a paintbrush, dab on small amounts
of Mortar Wash until desired look is achieved. Sponge off excess. Formula: Mix 1-part
acrylic paint (color suggestion: concrete or aged concrete), 12-parts rubbing alcohol,
8-parts water and 1 drop liquid dish soap.
