You knead the two parts together in equal measure until the colour is uniform, then have 1–3 hours to press the putty into cracks, rebuild chips and dampen a brush or tool to smooth the surface. It self-hardens without heat and is fully cured in 24 hours: rock hard, semi-gloss, with no shrinkage. It grips ceramic, stone, masonry and tile as well as wood, metal and plastics, so it suits pottery and garden ornaments as much as terrain.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMix A and B thoroughly; incomplete mixing gives poor results\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCopes with 260 °C (500 °F) of heat, plus UV and fuel\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eOutdoor-ready: it sets even under water, stays waterproof and survives freeze-thaw\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAfter the 24-hour cure it can be sanded, carved, drilled or tapped\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTakes all paints; wash tools in soap and water while it is still soft\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWhy Terracotta\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eUse it to mend clay flowerpots, terracotta planters, brick, tile and earthenware, where a pale fill would stand out. For scenery it doubles as a warm, earthy brown for rocks, walls and bases. Real terracotta comes in many shades, so see this as a near match to start from; a coat of paint or a wash finishes the blend.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eThe 1 lb pack\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eOne 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.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eWorth knowing\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIt cures rigid, so it is not for parts that need to flex, and for fine figure sculpting Apoxie Sculpt is the smoother compound.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eNot 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.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIt 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.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Aves Studio","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":68244746436797,"sku":"FX1TER","price":25.39,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0271\/9583\/4503\/files\/Hero1_f2d1bd19-7996-484d-9625-b0101448aa97.png?v=1794401953","url":"https:\/\/hobbyheaven.org\/products\/aves-fixit-454g-1lb-terracotta-epoxy-repair-putty","provider":"Hobby Heaven","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
