Putty | Vallejo
In this category you'll find Vallejo putty for scale modelling and miniatures: white, opaque acrylic pastes with a firm finish for filling joints, correcting cracks, texturing or rebuilding details before priming and painting.Which Vallejo putty to choose?
- Vallejo Plastic Putty 70400 (18 ml) — compact format for micro-repairs, mould marks and fine joints.
- Vallejo Plastic Putty 70401 (20 ml) — more product for long joint lines, fills and small textures.
How to use it (step by step)
- Prepare the area: trim flash with cutting tools, refine with files and finish with sandpaper.
- Apply little product: straight from the tube or with a spatula. For clean edges, protect with masking tape.
- Smooth while wet: with a tool or dampened finger to save on sanding later.
- Let dry and sand: use progressive grits (e.g. 100, 180, 280) until level.
- Check with primer: a thin coat of primer will reveal micro-pores before colour.
Accessories and products that pair well
- Cutting mats to work safely and keep cuts clean.
- Precision tweezers to hold small parts while filling and sanding.
- Adhesives (cements and CA) — glue first, putty afterwards to finish the joint.
- Vallejo auxiliary products (cleaners, thinners and mediums) to optimise the finish.
