Yep, you read it right. As Paul demonstrated we can paint with mud, or rather cob - the clay, sand and straw mixture used around Campus. The cob was thinned using Enviroseal, a military grade soil stabilizer, and painted onto the west end of the Manifesting Building.  Cob can be applied to buildings in this form, but for painting purposes it needed to be thinned down.  Paul thins the cob with Enviroseal.  Doug moistens the wall with Enviroseal, which will help the cob adhere more readily.  Paul brushes mud on the wall.  Dave, Dan and Rick pitch in and paint.  The first layer is on the bottom half of the wall, now only two more coats...
