Model Putty, Gap Fillers & Plastic Model Surface Repair
Fill seams, repair surface imperfections and refine custom model parts with Putty Filler from MegaHobby. Modeling putties and fillers are important finishing supplies for plastic model kits, resin projects and scratch-built components where joints, gaps or surface irregularities need additional attention.
Careful filling and sanding can help produce smooth transitions between parts and improve the appearance of a model before primer and paint are applied.
Model Putty for Seams & Gaps
Assembly joints can leave visible gaps or seams that require filling. Suitable modeling putty can help create a continuous surface before final sanding and painting.
Select a filler compatible with the model material and the size of the gap being addressed.
