Milliput Epoxy Putty - Black

I used it to repair a black laminated kitchen work surface as other options previously tried did not last.Its great stuff goes rock hard, sticks and does not harden too quickly so you have time to shape and mould as required.Great tip is to add a little water for finishing off and smoothing as it drags without and gives a rough finish.Water also keeps it malleable for a little longer.

Done the job very well.

This is useful stuff. It arrives as two little tubes of gunk in plastic bags in a cardboard box. The idea is that you mix equal quantities of the stuff then mould it like clay and an hour or so later it sets. In practice its actually pretty tiring kneading until it is a smooth colour. It also leaks black colour so it's advisable to wear rubber gloves if you have any. Once mixed it is easy to apply although not particularly sticky. As it sets it sticks but it can be a little tricky getting it to stick in the first place. It's also fairly slow to set. Although solid in an hour it's really only becomes rock hard overnight. I also know for a fact that one of the rolls of gunk will go hard over extended time, making it impossible to mix, so you should aim to use it all in a few months if you can. You need to make sure that you properly seal the two bags with cable ties between uses, to get it to last as long as possible.It's useful but because of it's fairly limited life it turned out rather expensive for me. I can't think of anything else I would use in it's place, so I would buy it again. The only possible substitute is chemical mortar, which is a lot cheaper, a lot faster, but it can not be moulded like this stuff and chemical mortar would require an additional dye to achieve a colour other than "mortar". So recommended with reservations.

Was hard to mix. Strongly recommend trimming off the hard skin on one of the sticks. Gives a much smoother consistency. Much easier to mix too. Definitely need to mix for a good 5 minutes. Was really easy to work on the repair I did. A digital camera. Now it's done, I'm really impressed with the product. Can't wait to use it again !

I’m all about extending the lifespan of “stuff” and this is my fav product du jour!1. One of the wheels of a sizable piece of Samsonite luggage had crumbled. Everything else in great condition so definitely didn’t want to get rid of it but it wasn’t fit for purpose with this breakage. Followed the easy instructions (used gloves) and literally within the stated 4 hours it has dried solid in place. The wheel is now just like new. This is pre-wheeling it any significant distance but it looks and feels solid. :))2. Additionally, I have a large decorative mirror. It’s 18+ years old, still looks great however a few glass mirror tiles have fallen out. So not so great. I’d tried various superglues but to no avail. It’s too heavy to take down so the tiles have to cure in situ, in a vertical position which isn’t ideal. I tried a piece of Milliput putty which has safely secured the glass tiles in place. I’m so happy with these repairs. Impressive performance. Most excellent product.

Very good modelling putty, easy to use and adheres very well, easy to shape while wet and sands well when dry, I have bought and used all the colours available and it has never let me down, the black colour really is black,I use this on wood to simulate the caulking lines on decks on large scale (1/12 scale) wooden model boats and always get a perfect finish, Highly recommended

I've been a fan of Milliput for decades. I sculpt with it, repair household things etc. I've even temporarily repaired teeth with the white pack! As some reviewers have said, Milliput can be difficult to mix, especially if the pack was opened a while ago. So here are some mixing tips for when it does get stiff: 1. avoid any hard or darkened edges of the rolls -cut them off with a stanley knife and just use the softer inner part. 2. make equal sized balls of each part, and flatten each ball into a pancake shape. Squash the two pancakes together and tear the result in half. Put one half on top of the other, squash together, tear in half again, repeat. Eventually you can start rolling into a sausage and folding that as you can with a freshly opened pack. 3. If cutting the rolls, use different blades for each roll, or the epoxy will cure much quicker in the pack.

I have used this milliput epoxy putty to repair a hole in my vehicles bumper - the black colour matched almost perfectly. I also then decided to use it to mount a rear camera to my car - due to the fact the putty is mouldable i was able to produce a wedge with just the right angle to give the perfect rear cam view.The product is very easy to use, just slice off the required amount in identical portions from the two tubes of putty, need together for about 5 mins until one solid black colour, then apply to your surface. I found that by applying a small amount of water i was able to mould and shape the putty into my exact requirements.Excellent product!
