It takes a few hours like all the rest.  And that depends on how thick you lay it down.  It is a single tube stuff and has a very smooth consistancy like melted plastic.

I just found this product recently and it is quickly becomeingh my favortie putty.  Sands smooth and scribes well.

 sounds like ya have a handle on the putty,i'm gonna look for it at my lhs.the squadron i normally use is the biggest reason i dispise filling and sanding,the stuff is grainy and unless ya spend hours with 1200 or better it still is porus.my guess to fix that i need to get into the practice of primering probably win half the battle.

Greg, this stuff is made by Gunze and WAY finer than the Sq. white stuff.  Its like it has no graininessat all.

I just used Mr. White Putty R (don't know what the "R" means) for the first time. Wow! A bit messy to apply (it can go everywhere — wear old clothes and protect good furniture), but it dries quickly, seems hard like rock but it easy to file and sand.
