|  Indoor course
Hey, guys ive been thinking of making an indoor course out of pre-formed ponds like these.   My thoughts were to just buy a bunch and screw them to a peace of wood, but sence they are plastic i dont think i will get very much traction. So what would be good to use for traction should i just spray some glue down and put some sand on it. I want to try and keep it looking naturalish. Ill probly buy some fake bushes and stuff like that. NOTE: These are not my photos i take no cedit of these. they are from rubiredunlmtd's photobucket account sorry for using them can remove if you want |

I would check out a company that does spray-on bed liners for trucks. It's super durable, washable, and available in tons of colors. Plus there are many texture options from really rubbery and gritty to more plasticy and smooth thus giving your indoor course different traction surfaces for more difficulty.

I would suggest looking in the yellow pages or google for "spray-on bed liners" or ask a truck customizing shop in your area.
