In the video, a person is seen applying a thick, brown paste onto a piece of cardboard. The person is wearing black gloves and using a tool to spread the paste evenly across the surface of the cardboard. The paste appears to be of a thick consistency and is spread in a smooth, even layer. The person's movements are deliberate and careful, ensuring that the paste is distributed evenly. The cardboard is placed on a flat surface, and the background is not clearly visible, focusing the viewer's attention on the action of applying the paste.
