simonj Posted June 11, 2021 Share Posted June 11, 2021 A few years back, I remember I got this green putty - came in a black tube I think, the putty was green, a bit smelly. Came in a tube, so a one part I used it to load weight into the front, and it caused softening / dimpling of the plastic of the kit - that was not a good result - but now on another project I actually fancy that effect. So - I am trying to find out the name of a green putty that made plastic soft 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dnl42 Posted June 11, 2021 Share Posted June 11, 2021 Could it be this stuff? https://www.scalemates.com/cs/kits/squadron-sq9050-green-putty--266506 Another potion with such an effect is E6000 glue. I used it exactly once in an RQ-4 to secure lead shot for nose weight. Took a lot of Tamiya Putty and Mr Surfacer to fix that mess. Now I use PVA.

davecov Posted June 11, 2021 Share Posted June 11, 2021 I did the same with Squadron Green Putty to the nose of an Airfix Tornado in the Seventies. I had stuffed the radome with the stuff and left the model overnight. Next day it had a nasty blob where the radome used to be. A lesson was definitely learned and never forgotten!
