Black Milliput is a two part putty weighing 113.4g. Black Milliput is a recent addition to the Milliput range. Ideal if you want to match a black surface without painting it afterwards. Once cured the beauty of Milliput is that it can be drilled, filed and sanded while still retaining its adhesive properties and bonding strength. Typical applications: Repair of antique clocks Guttering Ebonised wood Marble Slate Cast Iron Basalt ceramics Black plastic parts Automotive applications Jewellery making It is very important when using Milliput that you mix the two parts for at least five minutes. Mix together equal parts of each stick from the pack. Knead and roll in the hands for at least 5 minutes until the colours merge and become uniform and no streaks can be seen, and then mix for another minute. The surfaces to which the putty is applied should be free from grease and dirt. Smooth surfaces should be cleaned with a suitable solvent or with soap and warm water to remove dirt and grease. Abrading the surface will improve adhesion. The putty may now be applied and will set hard in three to four hours without shrinking. After setting hard Milliput continues to cure and is fully cured after over five hours at the same temperature. Once fully cured Milliput can be machined, drilled, tapped, turned, filed, sawn, sandpapered and painted. Milliput can be sandpapered and painted immediately it has set.
