I have never used Milliput. I notice that there are four varieties of it available. Can someone tell me the best kind to use to make the sandbags described in the article section of Armorama?
thanks
DJ

I fully recommend the White Superfine.

It's easier to mix and mould than the coarser types and the trick of placing a piece of cotton material on top and gently rubbing to get a fabric effect is better detailed.

Tried the outher types and stick with what I have found best. Best tip, use plenty of water.

Best wishes.
