Description
[Milliput Co] A trademark for a two-part epoxy putty that is sold in a dual stick form. Developed in the late 1960's, Milliput® is prepared by kneading equal portions of each stick together until mixed. Milliput® shapes readily; surface drying can be minimized with a few drops of water. Before it hardens, acetone can be used for smoothing. The putty sets in 1 hour and hardens in 2-3 hours. Once hard, Milliput® can be sanded, drilled, cut, or filed. It adheres to wood, metal, plastic, glass, and porcelain. Milliput® is available in pure white, yellow-green, gray, and terracotta colors and may be tinted during mixing or painted after drying.
Other Properties
Can be removed with soap and water prior to cure. When hardened, Milliput is resistant to water as well as most solvents and chemicals.
