[A revolutionary putty has been born that speeds up model making work]
Good news for busy modelers: Simple repairs such as filling holes can be completed in just 5 minutes! This special putty that hardens when exposed to light will revolutionize the way model making works.
●Amazingly short curing time: Cures in about 1 minute in direct sunlight and about 2 minutes under a tabletop fluorescent lamp (27W).
●Easy to use, one-part type: Since it does not use a hardener, you can simply take out the amount you need and use it straight away. It is a smooth paste type that adheres well to the base.
●Almost no sink marks: Since it is not a type that hardens by volatilization, there is almost no sink mark or thinning during hardening or even after a long time has passed.
●Easy shaping after hardening: After hardening, the putty has excellent cutting properties. It can be easily scraped off with files or finishing paper, and the finish is smooth.
●Can be painted with model paint: After shaping, the putty can be painted directly with model paint.
Yellow color, 34g, aluminum tube. Instructions and light-proof bag included.
[Tamiya Light-Cure Putty FAQ]
Q: Does it harden with UV light?
A: No. Tamiya Light-Curing Putty cures under visible light such as sunlight or fluorescent lamps. Therefore, no special lighting equipment is required. However, incandescent lamps and other sources of high temperature are not suitable for hardening the putty as they will cause bubbles to form in the putty.
Q: Can the putty be applied thickly?
A: The maximum thickness of Tamiya light-curing putty is 2mm. This is to allow light to penetrate to the inside of the putty. However, if you layer more putty on top of the hardened putty, it is possible to make it thicker than 2mm. You can also layer it in combination with other Tamiya putties other than light-curing putty.
Q: Will it freeze due to the lighting in the room?
A: Tamiya Light-Curing Putty will harden gradually even in weak light, but it will not harden immediately in room lighting, so there is no need to rush the putty application process. When applying the putty, avoid locations with strong light, such as near windows, and turn off any nearby lights. It is not recommended to apply the putty under only room lighting for a long period of time, as this may prevent the putty from hardening completely.
Q: Is it easy to store?
A: Since it does not contain organic solvents, it does not evaporate easily and has good storage stability after opening. After use, close the cap, place in the included light-shielding bag, and store in a dark, cool place.
Q: Does it adhere well to the substrate?
A: Tamiya Light-Cure Putty is a smooth paste type, so it adheres well to the base. However, unlike lacquer putty, it is not a melting type that dissolves plastic. Therefore, if you are using it on a smooth surface, first roughen the base with 180~400 grit finishing paper to allow the putty to adhere better.
Q: What is the hardness after curing?
A: After curing, Tamiya Light-Curing Putty is smooth and dense. It is also very easy to work with. In terms of hardness, it is slightly softer than plastic parts (PS resin). Therefore, when using it to repair plastic parts, the putty is removed first before the base material, allowing you to finish the work in a short amount of time.
Q: Are there any other things I should be aware of?
A: When Tamiya Light-Curing Putty hardens, a sticky (uncured) part remains on the surface of the putty. The sticky part can be easily wiped off with a cloth soaked in Tamiya Lacquer Solvent. If you plan to scrape the putty with finishing paper or similar, you can skip this wiping step.
