Milliput 90300004 Epoxy Putty, Superfine White

Product Information

When you have things blended to your liking grab your wire brush or sculpting tool and begin running it vertically up and down the trunk. The idea is to add a bark like texture to your armature while the surface is still pliable. So it doesn´t matter if you put the epoxy putty in an airtight container or underwater it will harden regardless once the two components have been mixed. Liquid colourings, like enamel paints, oil paints, spirit based-dyes or pigments can also be used to colour Milliput, but liquids or pastes may be difficult to introduce into the putty, again small quantities should be used, to avoid creating a very wet mix that may be difficult to mix.

Alternatively, you can opt for using ProCreate Putty, which I saw mentioned here, and sounds like something that acts a bit more like you would expect of a watered down putty. I wanted to have a go at making a miniature tree and wanted to use wire to make the armature as I’ve watched a few cool tutorials on doing it this way. I wasn’t sure what to cover the wire with until my father-in-law mentioned Milliput. I’d used polymer clay before but Milliput is very different, for a start it’s an air dry material, rather than needing to be baked in the over to harden. After setting hard Milliput continues to cure and is fully cured after an elapse of time equal to the setting time at the same temperature. Once fully cured Milliput can be machined, drilled, tapped, turned, filed, sawn, sandpapered and painted. Milliput can be sandpapered and painted immediately after it has set. (it is advisable to wear eye protection during this process).Here is your guide to leaking pipe repair using Milliput Epoxy Putty. What is Milliput Epoxy Putty?

No, Milliput isn’t toxic, but it is an irritant, so it’s best to wear gloves when working with it, particularly if you have sensitive skin. If you choose not to wear gloves then wash your hands with soap and water immediately after using it. Can you use Milliput with moulds? So you can use epoxy putty outdoors however you like and you won´t run into any issues. I have a few sculptures sitting outside in the garden where they have little to no protection against the elements and they are all still fine even after two years. When tools have been used for applying or contouring Milliput they should be cleaned immediately after use. If the putty is allowed to harden on it will be almost impossible to remove. No epoxy putty will work effectively on a live leak. If water pressure cannot be turned off, then a waterproof repair tape made from self-fusing silicone should instead be used to create a high-pressure seal. Should I use Milliput for pipe repair?

Different colours can be obtain by cross-mixing or blending from the range of colours that Milliput is available in.
