[Hi renarts great dio but as for switching from baking soda I wouldnt to stop or prevent yellowing which a lot of people do say happens hair spray or ven a clear coat airbrushed over the soda seals and protects it none of mine has yellowed and the above is what I use (just make sure the wife aint home when you take tha hairspray )quote]Originally posted by renarts

I painte a mixture of white glue and water onto the areas I wanted the snow. Then I sprinkled the baking soda onto those area. After it was dry I took my airbrush and blew off the excess.

There have been a few that have had some problems with the baking soda discoloring or absorbing humidity and reacting. I have not had this problem (and I live close to the ocean and on an island between two saltwater lagoons so I can attest to the problems of humidity) and will definately keep an eye on this. Just as a precaution though I think I will switch over to talcum powder or very fine gypsum.
It may be a case of other environmental factors that caused their problem but if it saves me some heartache later it would be worth the switch.
