Apoxie Sculpt - 2 Part Modeling Compound (A & B) - 4 Pound, White/Stone White

I'm a cosplayer and this is perfect for creating certain details that'd I otherwise not be able to create!It's pretty easy to eyeball an even amount but if you MUST have equal amounts of A and B then get a scale. The material is really REALLY pliable once you get to using it and spreads REALLY nicely over, say, an armature or something (I used balled up tin foil for mine). It stays soft for a very long time and is easily smoothed out with water. Once it dries, it's just as easy to add more apoxie sculpt if you so choose (I let mine dry and then glued it onto the top of a staff and then hid the seam with even more apoxie sculpt!!)It sands awesomely to help get a smooth finish, especially if you actually go from medium to fine sandpapers. It is easy to sand through all the way to your armature if you're not careful (because it DOES sand so easily), but that's easily remedied by MORE apoxie sculpt, or, you can just add body filler like I did to those problem areas. It plays very nicely with body filler, by the way. I had a few areas where there was a crease or I had accidentally scraped with my nail and once I filled it with body filler, you couldn't tell the difference!As for painting, it took the paint really well (I used spray paint) and I didn't have to work for a nice affect (I did a light brown, some red, then a dark brown).All in all, I'm super happy I bought this and look forward to using it more in the future!

I use it to make repairs on my sailboat that I live aboard in the Caribbean. Super easy to use. Just don't mix too much at a time. Because you have To mix it together really well until it's all one color. You can smooth it out with a mixture of soapy water with your fingers before it hardens up to make it nice and smooth. Or use saliva. It is easy to use and has a good putty type texture and it's not runny. As good, if not better than j. B. Weld. And the whole lot cheaper.

Great stuff. Limited only by your imagination.

I used this to repatch a major door dent. I did not want to use a more widely available product that is used for repatching automobiles due to the high volatile organic compound (VOC) that is harmful to breathing and general exposure, plus I had to do the patchwork inside a building. Before purchasing, I kept thinking that it might have a slight odor similar to two part epoxy or superglue, but it didn't even have that. There's very little odor at all, if any.The key to using this to repatch is having a spray bottle to wet the surface of the epoxy clay. If you don't, the clay is so sticky that it becomes impossible to mold or sculpt in a smooth manner. Once sprayed, the clay feels and sculpts almost like real clay. In order to get a smooth, flat finish, I used a spare plastic gift card to smooth the wet surface. After a few passes, the surface starts to become sticky again and needs more water. But with plenty of spraying, you can smooth it down fairly well. If you are sculpting an art project by hand, it's easy to start out blocking in the shapes, but the more you use it the more residue gets on your hands, which can cause the clay to stick to your hand as you continue to sculpt, leaving more sticky texture. You can remedy this with the spray bottle, re-smoothing, etc.The drying time is very generous. After about 90 minutes, the clay was still very soft, but had changed enough where it would bead up a bit if I still tried to smooth it out. 90 minutes is an eternity and plenty of time to sculpt compared to the other stuff. After 5 hours, I could still make indentations and it felt like old/hard sculpey/fimo clay. After 10 hours, it became like rock.The consistency of the dried clay reminded me of soap stone or baked sculpey/fimo clay. You could carve detail into it with an exacto knife, chisel, or rasp. Lots of opportunity for fine carving.I used sandpaper to sand it down before priming and repainting the area and the dried clay sanded down smoothly--no cracking or flaking.I used this on a metal door, but it'll stick to just about anything...wood, plastic, paper, etc.Clean up was easy...just rubbed my hands under water to dissolve the clay and rewashed again with dish soap. I can't vouch for the effects of skin exposure, which is why I washed my hands carefully afterwards.I was very impressed with this stuff and glad to have stumbled upon it instead of going the high-VOC route! If you are wary of breathing in toxic fumes from other commercial products for repatching, this is the way to go.
