Vallejo Plastic Putty for Models and Miniatures

Vallejo Plastic Putty is a water-based filling solution for constructing and preparing models and miniatures. Supplied in a 20ml tube, it can be used to fill seams and gaps or correct surface imperfections on plastic, resin and metal models. Its smooth texture supports accurate application, while limited shrinkage helps the putty retain its intended form as it dries.

This product is part of Vallejo’s range of fillers and putties. It is identified by manufacturer reference 70.401.

Applying the putty

Vallejo Plastic Putty can be applied directly from the tube. For greater control over placement and shaping, it can also be applied with a sculpting tool or brush. These application options make it suitable for addressing both seams between model components and smaller imperfections that require more precise attention.

The putty dries rapidly to form a solid surface. Once dry, the repaired area can be sanded, carved and painted as required. Relevant equipment for shaping and finishing the dried filler can be found in the Tools & Accessories and Sanding ranges.

Preparing a repaired surface

After curing, the putty creates a hard surface that holds acrylic paints and primers. This allows a filled or corrected area to move on to the subsequent stages of model preparation and painting. The ability to sand and carve the dried material also enables the repaired area to be refined before paint or primer is applied.

The putty can be used when preparing aircraft models, armour pieces and miniatures. It is intended for correcting details, filling visible gaps and producing a smoother surface before finishing. Its compatibility with plastic, resin and metal models gives it a useful role across different modelling projects without changing its central purpose as a surface filler.

Water-based filling and clean-up

As a water-based product, Vallejo Plastic Putty can be cleaned up with water. The supplied information also identifies it as non-toxic. These characteristics apply alongside its practical filling functions, including rapid drying, limited shrinkage and the ability to create a sandable, carvable and paintable surface.
