marky sparky Posted August 8, 2011 Share Posted August 8, 2011 Revell plasto all the time, dries quick and no notable shrinkage. If there's a largish gap to fill, then apply the filler in layers. I have used Humbrol putty in the past but it had a habbit of melting the plastic if over applied. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thx6667 Posted August 8, 2011 Share Posted August 8, 2011 Vallejo is water soluble and a bit "gritty" but its has its uses, Mr Surfacer is a solvent based and so has a bit more grip and sands down nicely. I use both for different tasks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
little-cars Posted August 9, 2011 Share Posted August 9, 2011 These are really three different fillers for three different uses. Vallejo is really good for filling small holes and seams, as it's water soluble it's easy to clean up the excess. Squadon is more suited for larger areas.
