Epoxy putty for a widebody?


Matteo Scaledcars

Recommended Posts

Hello fellow modellers,

 

I have been dying to ask this question but haven't got many answers. I want to attempt a custom wideobody on a 1/24 scale car. It is virtually impossible to get tamiya 2 part epoxy putty in the uk 

 

from my experience. If you know anywhere that sells it please let me know. I have looked around and milliput seems to be coming up a lot. Which type of milliput would be the best for my purpose

 

as there is the standard, turquoise, black, white etc.

 

If not milliput what else could I use that would work well. I have heard about greenstuff but it seems to have mixed reviews.

I find the Yellow-Grey Milliput to be ideal for large volume work.  Once set, it can be sanded to a very smooth finish, carved, drilled (with care), and I use it extensively.

 

I only use Green Stuff filler for sorting minor blemishes, etc. but not for anything that might be termed "structural".
