Milliput Epoxy Putty - White

Milliput is a cold-setting putty. It typically becomes touch-dry within 2-4 hours at room temperature, but it reaches full hardness and strength after 24 hours. Cooler temperatures will extend the setting time.

Yes, absolutely! Once Milliput has fully cured and is hard, it can be easily sanded, drilled, filed, and painted or cellulose sprayed. This allows you to achieve a seamless finish that matches your original item.

Yes, it is completely waterproof once cured. It even has the unique property of setting underwater, making it suitable for repairs in damp or wet conditions and providing a durable, waterproof seal.

Milliput Epoxy Putty is heat-resistant up to 130°C. This makes it suitable for various applications where moderate heat might be present.

While Milliput is very versatile and durable, it is generally not recommended for direct food-contact surfaces unless specifically stated by the manufacturer for such applications. For repairs on items like plates that will directly contact food, it's best to use food-safe alternatives.

It is easiest to clean your tools before the putty has set. Use an appropriate solvent, such as isopropyl alcohol or methylated spirits, to wipe away any uncured putty. Once the putty has hardened on tools, it will need to be mechanically removed by scraping or sanding.

You can cut off as small an amount as you need from each stick, as long as you maintain an equal ratio of the two components. This allows you to conserve material and mix only what's necessary for your repair.

This is almost always due to incomplete or incorrect mixing. Ensure equal parts of both components are thoroughly kneaded together until a perfectly uniform colour is achieved, with no streaks. Curing can also be affected by very low temperatures, ensure you are working at room temperature or slightly above.

The surface may not have been properly prepared. Ensure the application area is clean, dry, and free from grease, dust, or loose particles. For smoother surfaces, light sanding or roughing the area can improve mechanical keying for better adhesion.

Working time is finite once mixed. Try mixing smaller batches if you need more time for intricate work or if ambient temperatures are high, as warmth can accelerate the curing process. Work efficiently once mixed.

You can slightly dampen your fingers or tools with water to help smooth the putty during application. For intricate shaping, small sculpting tools can be very effective. Work quickly within the allocated working time.
