Perfect Plastic Putty or Vallejo Plastic Putty?

Perfect Plastic, waay more useable, & lots of how to's on their website:

Can be used 'dry', or shaped wet, dries hard, carves,  drills, sands, takes paint, etc., whereas the VJ... doesn't

I don't get on with VJ putty, doesn't go where I want, shrinks, & doesn't sand well..

About UKP£4.00-£5.00 for 40ml vs. UKP£3.00-ish for 11ml? so cheaper as well,

Rodger that. My fiance went ahead and ordered me some. Thanks a lot!

I went to their webpage and can't even find perfect plastic putty listed. What's up with that?

I purchase it through Amazon.

Ebay has it as well

I don't see how other putties can possibly be easier to use and more effective than Perfect Plastic Putty.

Mine comes tomorrow! I have a few builds waiting on it so i'm pretty excited.  Do you have any tips on using it? Or is it that easy

my bad,

Perfect Plastic You Tube & a review by Jim Paul 

I haven't tried the PPP yet; however, I do use the Vallejo Plastic putty fairly often.  The thing I like about the Vallejo is that you can cut the tip so that it only applies a small, super thin line of putty.  Then, using a damp finger or q-tip you can wipe away the excess.  When I use this putty it is mainly for small seam gaps or wing fillets.  Just my .02 worth.

I have been extremely happy with Perfect Plastic Putty.  It is super-easy to work with. Highly recommended.

I heard about Perfect Plastic Putty on another thread and was lucky to find some at my hobby store. I really like the product as it easily cleans with water. As an example, I'm working on a plane that has a small gap at the wing/fuselage joint. I carefully spread some of the putty on and used a wet Q Tip to wipe the excess leaving a smooth even patch.

One negative I've experienced with PPP is that it dries very fast. Several times I've be left with a useless blob of putty because it dried by the time I used all of it.

Mits- You mean it set up in the tube even with the cap on? Or dried as soon as you spread it on the model?

I place a  blob of putty on my workbench and use that as a "reservoir" for my putty work instead of leaving the cap off the tube. The size of the blob depends on how much I think I will need. At most it will be about the size of a pinto bean.

As I work from that reservoir if I take too long on a seam or something it will begin to dry out before I can use all of it.

Time wise I'm talking 1 to 4 minutes.

About like the 3M acryl blue glazing putty.

Ok, thanks. Sounds like most other putties I'm used to.
