Milliput: Black Putty

Black Milliput can be used for repairs to Bakelite Items, Antique Clocks, Guttering, Ebonised Wood, Marble, Slate, Cast Iron, Basalt Ceramics and Black Plastic Parts in cars (such as bumpers, small handles, buttons and knobs).

Milliput features:

• Self hardening
• Non - shrinking
• Tough and durable
• Highly adhesive to most materials
• Water and chemical resistant
• Sets under water and is electrically resistant
• moulds like putty - sets rock hard

It is very important when using Milliput that you mix the two parts for at least five minutes.

Mix together equal parts of each stick from the pack. Knead and roll in the hands for at least 5 minutes until the colours merge and become uniform and no streaks can be seen, and then mix for another minute. The surfaces to which the putty is applied should be free from grease and dirt. Smooth surfaces should be cleaned with a suitable solvent or with soap and warm water to remove dirt and grease. Abrading the surface will improve adhesion. The putty may now be applied and will set hard in three to four hours without shrinking.

After setting hard Milliput continues to cure and is fully cured after over five hours at the same temperature. Once fully cured Milliput can be machined, drilled, tapped, turned, filed, sawn, sandpapered and painted. Milliput can be sandpapered and painted immediately it has set.
