I was going to spray a glue mixure (water and Elmers Glue in a spray bottle.....recomended by a friend) on the track/cork, then sprinkle the ballast. Is this the way it is done? If so, what is the best way to keep the glue off the track? Tape? Any other suggestions?

Be patient. Ballasting can be a frustrating experience but it's worth the effort. Good luck!
