I'm trying to get into customizing and was told to go to walmart because they sold epoxy putty there.

So I found some and was wondering if anybody else has used it.

and could tell maybe tell me if it's a decent brand to start with.

I have used it on a few things. I made feet for my mighty mugg big daddy. I also used it on my dials for my pip-boy. It smooths pretty well and has a short set time. The stuff stinks though. I'd recommend latex gloves, It is hard to get the stink off. Most every one here swear by aves fixit though. I have yet to use mostly due to laziness. I have used the knead-a-tite (green stuff) it has a long working time.

 

I know I do! Ever since I found out about it in Jin's tutorial and tried it out, I feel like I can do anything  

 

Mighty Putty is also good.

 

I have also tried the putty stuff that you have to mix to turn to putty (comes in a tube with 2 nozzles or 2 separate tubes and you have to mix together) but the stuff stunk pretty bad and made quite a mess when not in use.  

So these other putties you guys mention, are they at Walmart too?

 

Michael's carries Mighty Putty.

 

The drawback of Mighty Putty is it dries quick so if you're trying to sculpt a head or something intricate, it isn't ideal. For bonding stuff together and small, easy sculpts, it's good.

Has a slight smell to it but it goes away after it dries.

 

If you want to sculpt details, use Aves.

If you just want to fill a gap or reinforce a part, use Mighty Putty.
