What is your favorite type of putty for filling holes and such?

BigJim, you would probobly get more response to this question down in the Techniques section.I myself prefer to fill round holes with a piece of stretched sprue to the same size of the hole rather then putty. But when it comes to Putty Preference I like the Squadron White and Green, I use two part exoxy types such as Tamiya Polyester Putty,& Milliput Superfine White for large areas of body work or modifacation.  The only Putty I have used and Did Not Like was Testors White Putty Dead [xx(] - stay away from that stuff unless you are a glutton for punisment.

Whatever's on hand.  Usually Squadron green or Bondo auto body spot filler.

I know all too well about that stuff! I haven't had the need for a putty in ages, that's why I asked.
Didn't know about a techniques section and now that I have looked, I don't see one either..
