Vallejo Plastic Putty

Vallejo Plastic Putty is a high-density modeling paste ideal for scale modeling, miniatures, and diorama work. Product 70401 Plastic Putty comes in a convenient 20 ml tube and dries to a white, fully opaque, extremely hard “stone-hard” finish. This Vallejo putty allows you to repair, reshape, and enhance models with fine detail, fill seams, or add surface textures — all without the need for complex tools or materials.

What Vallejo Plastic Putty 70401 Does

• Vallejo Plastic Putty dries with a fully opaque white finish, preventing translucency and ensuring the filled areas remain invisible after painting.
• Contains marble dust and other mineral fillers that give body and rigidity once dry, allowing sanding, carving, and polishing without cracking.
• Can be applied directly from the tube or with a spatula, making it practical for both small details and larger surface areas.
• Dries to a tough “stone-hard” surface, ideal for structural or raised details that require strength.

Advantages of Using Vallejo Plastic Putty

• Time-saving: quickly fills gaps and corrects imperfections in your models.
• Versatile: suitable for plastic models, resin kits, miniatures, and dioramas. Can be used to create raised textures such as terrain, roofs, or base effects.
• Excellent finish: once dry, the surface can be sanded, carved, and painted smoothly, blending seamlessly with surrounding areas.
• Easy to use: ready to apply straight from the tube — no mixing required.
• Simple cleanup: being acrylic-based, it can be cleaned off tools with water before drying.

How to Use Vallejo Plastic Putty

1. Prepare the surface: clean the area of dust, grease, or old paint residues.
2. Apply Vallejo Plastic Putty 70401 directly from the tube or with a spatula, pressing it firmly into the gap or area to repair.
3. For high-relief or textured work, apply in thin layers, allowing each layer to dry before adding the next.
4. Once dry to the touch, sand with fine-grain paper to smooth or even out edges if needed.
5. Paint over once the putty is completely dry. Apply primer first if your model requires it.
