Troubleshooting
Putty not hardening or curing slowly
Ensure you have mixed equal parts of both components thoroughly. In cold temperatures, curing may take longer; try working in a warmer environment.
Putty is too sticky to handle
Slightly dampen your fingers or tools with water to reduce stickiness. Work quickly as the putty begins to cure once mixed.
Difficulty shaping the putty
Work with smaller amounts or in cooler conditions for more control. You can also use wet tools for smoother shaping.
Uneven color after mixing
This usually indicates insufficient mixing. Ensure both parts are completely and uniformly blended before application.
