Two equal component jars make the 1 lb Red kit a straightforward format for modellers settling into Apoxie Sculpt after the starter size. Together they provide 454 g, split evenly between Part A and Part B, while remaining well below the quantity of the 4 lb workshop tubs. The coloured mass makes it easier to trace added material and changing contours during work on a neutral or primed surface. After cure, it may be painted as part of the normal finishing process.
Aves assigns the freshly mixed compound a usable range of 1–3 hours.
Measure matching amounts of A and B for a 50/50 batch and knead for two minutes until activation is complete.
The product cures through self-hardening, with no baking stage required.
Allow all 24 hours of curing before the surface is sanded or drilled.
Aves describes the finished result as hard and waterproof while specifying 0% shrinkage.
Aves advises leaving the mixed batch alone for five minutes to improve handling.

Notes · Q & A
What's the difference between Green Stuff and Milliput-type putties?+
Green Stuff is flexible and springy, holding fine sculpted detail like cloth and cabling. Milliput-type putties are harder-setting and sand smooth once cured, which makes them better for gap-filling and surfaces you want to blend flat. Many sculptors mix the two.
How do I stop epoxy putty sticking to my tools and fingers?+
Keep a little water on the tool and your fingertips as a release; the putty won't grab a wet surface. Work in good light and let very tacky putty firm up for a few minutes before shaping fine detail.
How do I get the mixing ratio right?+
Most epoxy putties cure at a 1:1 mix of the two parts by volume, kneaded until the colour is fully even with no streaks. Under-mixing leaves soft patches that never fully harden, so mix longer than feels necessary.
How do I fill a seam gap cleanly without losing nearby detail?+
Press a small amount of putty into the gap, then wipe the excess back with a wet tool or a cotton bud before it cures, leaving putty only in the recess. Cleaning up wet saves sanding over detail later.
