Tamyia quality
Pretty good putty but most tamiya products are. Dries quickly and sands easily and is fairly durable.Minimum shrinkage and adheres very well . Not a great price but worth it for the good performance of product.

Excellent for Adding Texture
I've only so far used it for adding a cast iron texture to a MaK model (works amazingly for such a simple technique), but it works incredibly well for added texture. It dries very quickly so be mindful you'll have to work fast! That is a strength and a bit of a drawback, as the rapid drying time means shapes hold better and you don't have to wait a long time for curing. I've so far only used a finger stipple technique (with gloves!) and it can take a bit of time to understand how the putty moves and reacts. Excellent stuff, though. I love it.

High quality plastic putty
It's been a while since I assembled a plastic model kit. I used to use Squadron's Green Putty, and this is just as good to work with and gives excelent results. The only difference is that this is gray instead of green.

Awesome cement!
Great for feeling in gaps!

expensive, but worth it
A gray colored version of the similar white Tamiya putty. Fluid, semi quick filler of fix for many model building projects. It doesn't hold its shape or have the strength to sculpt something, but indispensable for most filling tasks. it is sandible to a good finish, and within reason can be carved for almost anything. Takes a bit longer than paint to dry. Given a couple hours it can be lightly sanded or carved, and overnight becomes very solid.

It fills small gaps easily.
This putty works best on small gaps, with little prep work. It dries in a couple of hours and can be sanded right after. It can be used right out of the tube, no mixing required. It makes a model look better than it does without, if it has gaps that are unsightly to look at. It can be painted at the same time as it is sanded. A good value for the money. There isn't a smell to it that I've noticed. The putty is as effective glue and is quite durable to use in model building. I recommend it to seal gaps in a model kit.

Good cover up putty
I used this putty to fill gaps and cracks in my 3D-printed cosplay pieces, and overall, I'm really happy with it. It is a bit thick, which makes it somewhat challenging to spread out thinly, and it does take a while to fully dry before you can sand it. However, once it’s dry, it does a fantastic job of covering gaps and giving a smooth finish. Definitely a good purchase in the end.

grey colored magic!
It may call itself "Basic type" but this putty is far from basic.In thin layers, this putty cures in 30 minutes. It carves away, sands down and becomes a seamless finish on your project. That piece you accidentally snipped off and glued back on that left a visible crack? GONE. This putty has become a life-saver with my resin garage kit projects.
