Fixit is the repair compound from Aves Studio, the people behind Apoxie Sculpt, and this is the 1 lb (454 g) kit in Ceramic White. Combine Part A and Part B in equal amounts and knead them into a firm, smooth filler that bonds as well as it fills. Over the next 1–3 hours you can push it into place, model it and wet it down to a clean surface. Nothing needs baking: once 24 hours have passed it is hard and semi-gloss, with no shrinkage or cracks. Use it on snapped kit parts, gaps, china, statues and garden pieces.
Knead A and B for 2 minutes, so no marbling is left
Rated for 500 °F (260 °C) of heat; UV and fuel do not harm it
Unaffected by water and frost, and it will even cure submerged
Sand, drill, tap or machine it once cured, without chipping or flaking
Paint it wet or cured; soap and water removes it from tools and hands
Why Ceramic White
Pick white when the repair sits on something pale: porcelain, glazed pottery, white resin or a light figurine, where darker filler would ghost through. It also disappears easily under light paint. The shade is an off-white, ceramic-like tone rather than a brilliant white, so a white-glazed piece will still want a little paint or glaze over the fill if the mend is to vanish.
The 1 lb pack
One kit holds Part A and Part B, 454 g in total: the middle of the three Fixit sizes we stock, enough for a terrain project or a run of repairs. The other sizes in this colour are linked in the specification table. Mix only what you can use within the working time; once A and B meet, it cures whether you have finished or not.
Worth knowing
It cures rigid, so it is not for parts that need to flex, and for fine figure sculpting Apoxie Sculpt is the smoother compound.
Not for safety-critical or load-bearing parts, or pressurised gas and fuel systems. We hold no food-contact certification for it, so keep it off surfaces that touch food or drink.
It may cause an allergic skin reaction and eye irritation: wear gloves when mixing. Sanding dust from the cured putty contains crystalline silica, so wear a dust mask and safety glasses. Keep it away from children.

Notes · Q & A
Apoxie Sculpt, Apoxie Clay or Fixit — which Aves compound do I need?+
All three are two-part epoxy compounds mixed in equal amounts that harden on their own, with no oven or kiln. Apoxie Sculpt is the smooth, all-round sculpting compound in a wide choice of colours. Apoxie Clay has a fine, clay-like grain for detail and texture. Fixit is the firmer repair formula, heat rated to 260 °C and resistant to fuel, for fills, bonds and rebuilt parts.
How do I mix it, and how long can I work it?+
Take equal amounts of Part A and Part B, ideally wearing nitrile gloves, and knead for about two minutes until the colour is completely even with no streaks; under-mixed putty leaves soft spots. Working time varies by product, from about one hour to three, and is listed on each product page. All of them reach full cure in 24 hours.
How do I smooth it, and what cleans it up?+
While it is still workable, smooth or texture the surface with a little water on a finger, brush or tool, or with Aves Safety Solvent, which also lifts fingerprints; Apoxie Clay is smoothed with the solvent. Hands and tools clean up with soap and water before the compound sets. Once cured, only sanding or carving will remove it.
Can I sand, drill and paint it once cured, and what precautions should I take?+
After the full cure it can be sanded, filed, drilled, tapped or turned without chipping, and it takes paint wet or cured. It does not shrink, and it is waterproof and freeze-thaw stable. Wear gloves when mixing, since the uncured compound can cause a skin allergy and eye irritation, and a dust mask and safety glasses when sanding.
