Epoxy putty

CrayolaViolence · 09/14/2018, 05:45 AM

My go to putties in the past have been Apoxy sculpt and Magic sculpt but recently I've noticed an extreme price increase in both products. I realize sometimes this is due to manufacturing costs but it can also be due to supply and demand.
I was wondering if anyone else can recommend a marine safe putty for rock work that might be a tad more economically friendly.

Thanks

Apoxie Sculpt 1 lb. Natural, 2 part modeling compound (A & B) price is not bad at all for 1 lb
