Product Information

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 it has set. (it is advisable to wear eye protection during this process). This article relies excessively on references to primary sources. Please improve this article by adding secondary or tertiary sources.

Here someone suggest adding a little soap with the water, as this will not only let it mix better, but also increase the drying time, although I think this might be detrimental for the structure. Recommended that Milliput is stored in cool, dry conditions. Please reseal bags after use. Stored correctly this product should remain workable for about 2 years. Typical applications: Once you are satisfied with your paint job simply let the paint dry and then finally apply a top coat to protect the paint from the sun, from scratches, and more. I like to use either a varnish or an acrylic sealer as a topcoat.

Strong powder pigment rather than powder paint is better as smaller amounts can be used.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. First, you have to clean the surface of the epoxy sculpture from any dirt and dust by using some soapy water and a piece of cloth. If you’ve had a box of Milliput in storage for a while and try to work with it, you may find that it’s very hard to mix and may not harden correctly. Is Milliput toxic? Milliput are one of the world’s leading producers of epoxy putty with a brand that is recognised worldwide. They bill their products as “the epoxy putty with a thousand uses” and their customers range from model makers to woodturners to industrial users.

I even painted a few of them and as long as you seal the paint properly then the paint will survive as well. Milliput products are available from most leading model/hobby shops, art and craft suppliers, independent hardware stores and plumbers merchants. Why Milliput?

You may not need to cover all the wire if you know you’ll be covering these with leave or moss later. Milliput Epoxy Putty is sandable, so if the putty has hardened fully then sanding paper or a Dremmel can be used to smooth the sculpture or to add an extra layer of detail. The dust from sanding epoxy putty is very fine so a protective mask should be worn when sanding Milliput or other epoxy putties. First used this product about 35 years ago at work and was impressed then. Forgot about it for the best part of the 30 years in between but was reminded of it on a car forum recently. Once the Milliput wash has dried, you can sand it to make it super smooth or add colour to it with acrylic paint.
