Is this stuff unique to Games Workshop or is it generally available from others? DBDD |

what is liquid green stuff (do a search online, and you will get a hint of an alternative product that is much cheaper…) |

The product "liquid green stuff" is a GW only product. It's a very thick acrylic paint that they are pushing for the use their models to fill/smooth small gaps while constructing. Other companies make filler putties that do the same job, with varied results. (Most of which work better than the GW stuff, many of which have more toxic components like toluene.) For example, Squadron putty comes in both green and white varieties. |

Look for Gunze Sangyo Mr Surfacer products. It comes in several grits, but works similar to LGS, in that it is a paintable filler. Damon. |

or, you could use the following: red bondo in the tube from a auto parts store thinned down with testors liquid plastic cement. put this in a sealable glass jar like an empty testors liquid cement jar. I have used this for decades to fill seams, build up around the base of miniatures and general filling duties. it will shrink a bit when drying, but multiple thin coats are way better than a single thick coat. -clark |

Don't know if it's the same product, but Kneadatite (the makers of the sculpting epoxy) did make a a liquid version. You may check with them. |

I will look for this liquid green stuff as I always like to 'play' and experiment with new things, but for years I have used JB Weld which you can find in any good hardware store – I get mine at Lowes. It is a two-part creamy epoxy which hardens when mixed with equal amounts. There are two types; one is a faster drying but can't take much heat or pressure. The other is what I use and takes longer to set up (couple of hours) but when cured will withstand several tons of pressure and 500 degree plus temps making it ideal for vulcanizing and making strong bonds.

I was reading up on the so-called Liquid Green Stuff (one out of three ain't bad), and decided on a Milliput wash. I figure that I can use the excess Milliput for a few other projects. |
