HELP:putty

I want to know the difrent between normal putty and 2 part putty.I heard that normal putt is not good for making widebody.why? besides that how u mix 2 part putty and what the best mixing ratio. any help will be great.Thanks :rolleyes: :rolleyes:

One part is not chemically hardened. Two part has the material, and a catalyst.

The mixing ratio depends on the putty.

I dont understand a word.

Which word don't you understand?

2 part putties consist of 2 parts which you mix to make the actual putty, 2 part putties set up harder and are better for shaping and forming.

One part putties are good for filling small imperfections and things, but when it comes to large pieces they have no real strength.

One part putty hardens by the evapolation of the solvent. When applied thick, the inner layer takes very long time to harden, and it also shrinks a lot, making it unsuitable for thick application like the body kit. However, solvent melts plastic and grabs (i.e. blend with) the surface very well, so it's meant to correct the manufacturing inperfections like sink marks, seam lines and gaps.

Two part putty hardens by chemical reaction, which allows you to build up as thick as you want, suitable for thick application like the body kit, but it takes much longer to harden, and doesn't grap the plastic surface very well.

Make sense?

ooo thanks.

btw the faq have a good explaination for putty
