Troubleshooting

Putty not curing or staying soft

Ensure equal parts of both components were mixed thoroughly and continuously until a uniform color was achieved. Check if the putty is old or has been stored improperly, affecting its reactivity.

Putty curing too quickly

Work in a cooler environment. Mix only small batches that can be used within the working time. Ensure components are stored at room temperature and not exposed to excessive heat.

Poor adhesion to surface

Clean the surface thoroughly to remove all dust, grease, oil, or paint. Lightly abrading the surface with sandpaper can also improve adhesion.

Difficulty in sanding

Allow the putty to cure fully. If it's still difficult, you may be using sandpaper that is too coarse. Try wet-sanding with progressively finer grits.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Provides a wide range of colors for diverse repair and modeling projects.
  • Cures to a very hard and durable finish suitable for demanding applications.
  • Can be machined (sanded, drilled, carved) after curing for a perfect finish.
  • Adheres strongly to a variety of common materials like metal, wood, and plastic.
  • Easy to mix and work with before it cures, offering good workability.

Cons

  • May require mixing colors for precise shade matching, adding an extra step.
  • Curing time can vary depending on ambient temperature and mass of the mix.
  • Surface preparation is crucial for optimal adhesion.
  • Can be messy if not handled carefully before curing.
  • Not suitable for flexible materials or applications requiring significant flexibility after curing.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup: To use Milliput, cut equal lengths of the two different colored sticks (Part A and Part B) and knead them together thoroughly until a uniform color is achieved. The putty is then ready to be applied. Work within the specified working time, typically around 30 minutes to an hour, depending on temperature.

Compatibility: Milliput adheres well to most common surfaces including metal, wood, glass, ceramic, concrete, and many plastics. Ensure surfaces are clean, dry, and free from grease or loose material for best adhesion. It is not recommended for use on flexible materials.

Care: Once cured, Milliput can be treated like the material it's bonded to. It can be sanded, drilled, tapped, carved, and painted. For cleaning tools and work surfaces, use water and soap before the putty cures. After curing, mechanical methods like sanding are required.
