Finally something I can help with!

This is a random mix of white glue, real dirt, paint pigment powder(s), and gloss enamel paint. The pigments were simply to get the shade we wanted, and the enamel was used to keep things wet looking.

To this day, people won't touch it because they think they'll get mud on them.

I use concrete mix and white glue, and also artist oil painted on thick,  then paint and gloss clear like future to make wet areas.

WOW! That is one of the best Chevy/GMC truck builds I've seen.  The mud looks super realistic as well.
