What would I use to make rocks look wet? Looking for something in one coat if possible?

Envirotex-- bought at your local home center. Or one thick coat of high gloss spray paint may achieve the results you're after.

I use the same as AndyO, Great looking waterfowl habitats and fish bases also. I even incorporate with some of my lifesize Mount's.

I agree, envirotex is the way to go, but you won't find it at Home Depot, try a Michaels or Hobby Lobby.

May also try thompsons deck sealer, it gives a wet look without a real high gloss. ??

Kerry,
Any of the hobby/craft stores carry it.  Michael's usually has a 40% off coupon in their sales ad every week that I use when I need some.
