Milliput Mill Pack, Standard Yellow Grey, MPP-1

I was a bit hesitant about buying this thinking I wouldn't have much use for it, but I have found uses for it on a weekly basis, if not more. If you have even a vague interest in DIY and repairing things, you NEED this in your toolkit, no question. Just buy some. You can bodge things that you couldn't even dream of doing with anything else other than perhaps Araldite. I am absolutely kicking myself for not discovering this earlier, the amount of things I could have saved from landfill over the years! It's so forgiving and clean to use, not like Araldite epoxy resin. You just mix two equal parts together in a minute or two (for small amounts, bigger amounts take a little longer) and mould it to whatever surfaces you want to fix. It comes off your hands no problem at all, you've plenty of time to get it how you want it. The manufacturers claim one hour curing time but I always leave everything overnight just to be sure. So far I've used it for: - Fixing holes in a microwave oven cavity - Binding the ends of elasticated shoelaces together in a neat way (black version) - Affixing a metal escutcheon to a wooden door - Fixing plastic parts from a fridge - Installing a magnetic door catch for a drawer on said fridge - Jamming a switch in place to bypass it and more random jobs I can't think of off-hand. It's become a go-to for all sorts of fixes and bodges around the house. The only downside is that the standard, cheapest version is an unappealing grey-green colour but other colours are available if you need a good looking job.

easy to use- mix equal parts of two kinds of clay together and it sets hard in a few hours and rock solid overnight. It is very easy to shape and mold. It can also be drilled and sanded afterwards. It will even set in water! Obvious applications are- (1) filling walls where the hole has become too big and you will need to redrill afterwards (say, for the insertion of another raw plug and screw)- something that polyfilla is far too crumbly for. (2) Repairing cracked fish tanks (3) We have used it to fill in chips in cracked plates / cups which are part of an expensive set (afterwards, touched up with a bit of an enamel paint) This worked wonderfully, especially as one can form the shape of Milliput under running water, making it very easy to match the contours of the product one is fixing. (4) Fixing cracked / slightly leaking plumbing There are literally hundreds of uses. Everyone self respecting DIYer / fixer / dad should have some about the house; as well as some Araldite!

This product is outstanding Perfect for minor jobs. It did exactly what it said on the pack and then when sanded down it was smooth and a great repair which so far is waterproof and wipeable. 10/10

I used the Milliput Standard Yellow Grey to repair a non-pressurized metal cap on my air compressor, and it worked perfectly. The epoxy is easy to mix and shape, providing a solid, durable bond once it sets. It’s ideal for small repairs like this and holds up well under normal use. A great product to have on hand for quick fixes—highly recommended!

Milliput is so good, easy to use and rock hard when set. I am never quite sure how to use it without making a mess in doing so but that’s not an issue. I used this batch for filling in plastic models. Once dry very hard but way enough to sand down. This sets yellow - make sure you prime before painting with light colours.

The best all round 2 part epoxy for the price. 1) To make using it easier use a lot of water, This will makes things very messy, but worthwhile, as otherwise, it will stick to you and/or your tools just when you don't want it to. 2) If you aren't using it for domestic plumbing, then mixing it with Green Stuuf will give you the best properties of both sculpting materials. 3) If you leave it open and unused for long periods it will become much more difficult to mix, so try and use it up and buy fresh when you need it again.

I have an old Technics hi-fi system from the mid-80s which I didn't want to part company with yet, however the plastic moulding inside the big cylindrical volume knob which kept it fixed to the unit had broken, and gluing was clearly not going to do the trick. With this fantastic Milliput putty, I was able to mould it around the metal spindle to which the volume knob was supposed to attach. I had to do this in a two-stage process firstly to produce the moulded section which would slide and lock onto the metal spindle, and then take that piece and mount it, with a bed of the same putty, back into the interior of the volume knob. I won't say that my work was pretty (since it wasn't going to be visible) but it did require a little bit of finesse to file the moulded section, once set, down to a suitable size to mount inside the broken knob, which I mention only to say that it was very easy to file the initial moulded section down with a standard kitchen cheese grater (the finest of the 4 faces) - the section was definitely as tough as plastic, but it filed down easily without cracking or splintering. Had it not been for this terrific little product, the volume knob would have remained broken and off the unit, the ugly metal spindle would've protruded, and in due course my wife would have 'convinced' me to part company with the old beast altogether...

I used Milliput to fix a leak in a coolant pipe on a car that's difficult to get parts for. I left it for four hours then checked - it had gone hard. I then left it another 24 hours before driving. I drove a short distance with no heater / fan on, a short distance with the heater on cool, a longer distance on cool, a short distance with the heater on high heat, and a longer distance with the heater on high heat, checking the pipe (carefully, as the engine was hot) and making sure the engine wasn't smoking, each time. As Milliput is heat-resistant to quite a high temperature, it's worked brilliantly. I now keep some Milliput in the car for emergencies.
