New Hide and Basking Spot Completed!

[czuber]

Started a new Hide and basking spot for the Viv. Used the Hot wire foam cutter to make the shapes it was a lot neater than a steak knife we used the last time lol.

Ready to grout and seal

Looks awesome!

It looks great! Approximately how long does it take to add grout?

I use a fan in between coats and get a couple on a day. I typically put on 4 coats with the last one being the thickest. Then Dry for a full day. Seal it with three coats about every 3-4 hours. Dry overnight and its done.

I used a sheet of Styrofoam, I used Sanded Grout since I already had a partial bag either grout works. I painted over it with a little brown and black to add some color depth. and sealed it with a spray on sealer I got from Lowes. I put a piece of Repti carpet for padding and comfort
