I ballasted the ties in this week:
   

I'm using WS fine gray as mentioned before along with my home-made scenic cement. After the cement had set up I went back and sanded the tops of the ties with 200 grit sandpaper wrapped around a wood block. This evened out the ties, removed any ballast that had become glued to the tops of the ties, and produced a nice weathered look. 

   

I also ballasted around some of the turnouts, but not around the points. Still figuring that out. These still have to be cleaned up around the rails, frogs, and tops of the ties.
