Milliput \u2013 Two-Part Epoxy Putty for Modelling, Restoration, and Crafts<\/h2>\r\nMilliput is a two-part epoxy sculpting putty<\/strong><\/a> specially formulated for modelling, miniatures, restoration, sculpting, and DIY projects. When equal parts of its two sticks are mixed together, the hardening process is activated, allowing you to precisely shape fine details and fill gaps before it sets. This putty, highly regarded by both hobbyists and professionals<\/strong>, is known for drying to a hard, durable finish, ensuring your Milliput creations stand the test of time.\r\n

Advantages of Milliput Putty<\/h3>\r\n
    \r\n \t
  • Two-part formula:<\/strong> Mixing equal parts triggers the epoxy reaction, offering up to ~1 hour of sculpting time and a solid set within ~2\u20133 hours.<\/li>\r\n \t
  • Fast-setting and sandable:<\/strong> After 24 hours of curing, the putty can be sanded, cut, and painted<\/strong> with acrylics, enamels, or oils, resulting in smooth and detailed surfaces.<\/li>\r\n \t
  • High adhesion:<\/strong> Bonds firmly to a wide range of materials (wood, plastic, metal, glass, ceramic, etc.), making it suitable as a strong putty adhesive for joining parts.<\/li>\r\n \t
  • Water and solvent resistant:<\/strong> Once cured, Milliput withstands immersion in water and temperatures up to ~130\u00a0\u00b0C. It also resists oils and most solvents, making it ideal for both indoor and outdoor repairs.<\/li>\r\n \t
  • Easy to use:<\/strong> Milliput won\u2019t stick to hands or tools when moistened with water, making it easy to handle. It can be shaped with spatulas, blades, or even wet fingers, and smooths out effortlessly.<\/li>\r\n<\/ul>\r\n

        How to Use Milliput<\/h3>\r\nTo use Milliput, follow these simple steps:\r\n
          \r\n \t
        1. Prepare the components:<\/strong> Cut equal parts from the two putty sticks.<\/li>\r\n \t
