JpR62 Posted February 16, 2019 Share #1 Posted February 16, 2019 When I need to use my Minwax wood putty to imitate the treenails, I found the putty that had hardened in his box. After some research on the web, I have found this video that contains a solution : https://www.bing.com/videos/search?q=minwax+wood+putty+soft&&view=detail&mid=48DA9105B2B16B26D88C48DA9105B2B16B26D88C&&FORM=VRDGAR So I buy a small box of petroleum jelly (in Europe that product is named Vaseline) and it does his job : the putty has a second life BETAQDAVE, thibaultron, Canute and 1 other 4 Quote Jean-Paul 'You are not carving a bear with a chain saw here folks', Chuck Passaro, ´Queen Anne Style Barge´ manual of instructions Current builds : Medway Longboat 1742 - Syren Ship Model - 1:24 HM Cutter Cheerful 1806 - Syren Ship Model Company - 1:48 Finished build : Queen Anne Barge - Syren Ship Model - 1:24 Armed Virginia Sloop - Model Shipways - 1:48 Batelina - MarisStella - 1:10 Next on list : Santa Maria boat - Korabel (Ukraine) - 1:24 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jaager Posted February 18, 2019 Share #3 Posted February 18, 2019 There is one part of this that I suspect may cause a problem. White pet does not evaporate, at least not in the temperature range where we can exist. That means that the mixture will remain semi fluid. On a hot summer day - could it flow out of a vertical surface? What is the result of using PVA instead of white pet? Is it compatible with the existing gemisch?
