First, thanks for this video, you're awesome Here's my review: The product is a great alternative for sure but in fairness I personally don't recommend it for detailed pieces. On flat surfaces it's very smooth once sanded and can be an okay filler. I don't really like it as it's harder to sand down and takes ages to dry, specially if you're filling big crevices... Thanks again for the video :D

My opinion is that you diluted with to much water, you should only add enough water to get a consistancy that you want, a 3 or 4 parts putty to one part water should be a good consistancy. Or only add enough water to a consistancy that you like.

I tried a few ratios, still took the longest to dry with mediocre filling results, too little & it’s the same as full concentrate, harder to sand & time wasted.
