There are certain instances when work may be carried out in a gentle stream of water under a tap. To aid manipulation and avoid sticking, fingers and tools should be kept moistened with water.

the putty may now be applied and will set hard in three to four hours without shrinking.Īt all stages from initial mixing to final setting Milliput responds to the use of water. Abrading the surface will improve adhesion. Smooth surfaces should be cleaned with a suitable solvent or with soap and warm water to remove dirt and grease.
Milliput putty free#
The surfaces to which the putty is applied should be free from grease and dirt. 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. Mix together equal parts of each stick from the pack. Milliput will set under water and is heat resistant up to 130☌. Milliput is an excellent adhesive and will bond any of the following to itself or to any of the others - wood, brick, cement, metals, concrete, plastics, glass etc, but note that Milliput is not intended as a thin layer adhesive. Once fully cured Milliput can be machined, drilled, tapped, turned, filed, sawn, sandpapered and painted. By the application of heat the setting time can be reduced.Īfter setting hard Milliput continues to cure and is fully cured after an elapse of time equal to the setting time at the same temperature. Speed of hardening is dependant on temperature and at normal temperatures (20-25 deg C) Milliput becomes rock hard in three to four hours. Once equal quantities of each stick have been mixed the resultant putty is at first soft and highly adhesive and then gradually hardens. sticks and the general instructions for preparation and usage are the same.
