MEP-01 is DSPIAE's two-part epoxy modelling putty in a skin colour. The pack holds 50 g of Part A and 50 g of Part B: take equal amounts and knead them together until the colour is even, adding a few drops of water if it feels too sticky. You then have about 30 minutes for free shaping, and for roughly 90 minutes after that you can still make small adjustments and add fine details. After around 6 hours it has cured, and you can cut, drill, sand and paint it. Use it for sculpting, detailing and filling seams and gaps on models; it shrinks very little and is waterproof once hard.
100 g in total, two 50 g bars
Works best at 20–25 °C; in a cold room it cures more slowly
Also sold in white (MEP-02) and grey (MEP-03)

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.
