Putties | Vallejo

Which Vallejo Putty to Choose?

• Vallejo Plastic Putty 70400 (18 ml) — compact size for micro repairs, mold lines, and fine seams.
• Vallejo Plastic Putty 70401 (20 ml) — larger format for long joints, fills, and small textures.

How to Use It (Step by Step)

1. Prepare the area: remove burrs with cutting tools, refine with files, and smooth with sandpapers.
2. Apply a small amount: directly from the tube or using a spatula. For clean edges, protect with masking tape.
3. Smooth while wet: use a damp tool or finger to reduce sanding later.
4. Let dry and sand: use progressively finer grits (e.g. 100, 180, 280) until level.
5. Check with primer: a thin coat of primer will reveal any micro-pores before painting.
