Scupting
I wanted to extend the figures of a Halloween animatronic figure I was building. This product had a good price value to it, so I decided to try it. It worked extremely well. I twisted up some wire and inserted it into the putty and its held together quite well. It sanded relatively easily. Finished it with some red spot putty and spray painted with enamels. Very happy with this product. I used food service gloves to knead together the putty, dipping my fingers in water to make it easier to knead, and used more water to sculpt the putty.

Moldable epoxy
This epoxy does mold well to shapes. It can epoxy bolts into concrete, fill holes and hold fast bolts and rods. It does not adhere well to shallow divots and seems to want to flake away in this situation. You take two equal portions of putty and you knead them together very well. If you don’t mix them well, this can fail on you. It’s completely hard within 12-24 hours. This can be primed and painted as well. I even sanded mine and it sands extremely well. The one big “con” for me is that it doesn’t fill shallow holes well without flaking and breaking apart. I definitely recommend this product for adhering bolts and rods into concrete and would probably buy it and use it again for this purpose. I did not test it for use beneath water so I cannot judge this product on that ability.

Warm it up first
I got this for sculpting purposes. I want to make silicone molds of pieces I will assemble...In the above pictures, I used it to solve the double tier Lazy Susan’s perennial problem of wobbliness. In between other projects, that Lazy Susan was working my last nerve.Do warm the putty containers, mixing will be much easier. You can use a warm water bath. In my case, I put them closer to the wood burning stove.After assembly (described in more detail below) it was pretty hard in about four hours. I still could have engraved it if I wanted to. I did not sand. I could shape and smooth with water, when it was still workable.So I mixed up some epoxy putty coils and was going for some kind of vine-like structures to connect the flimsy pole to the upper and lower tiers, that had the manufacturer’s included screws for its original assembly. I think the screws were too short? Glue didn’t help. So this was my second attempt to redeem this Lazy Susan and make it functional. And it is a success!As it turned out, the first vine pieces needed reinforcement and then it needed a flower-like addition. Then it had to be colored with fluorescent and metallic markers, adding some black marker details. The sculptural-redemption now peeks out between the supplement bottles that moved into the stabilized Lazy Susan.

Not very good
I worked with a lot of sculpting clay and this is absolutely the worst !! It doesn't want to stick to anything the more you work it for more pulls away from what you're working on....You get what you pay for, do yourself a favor and spend a couple extra bucks and get Something Better than this !

Better than messy fiberglass. Product as advertised
Yumcraft. Epoxy Putty - 16oz Epoxy Pool Putty 2 in 1 Underwater or Above Repair Putty.Much more efficient for filling the two 1" dia holes in the transom of my fiberglass boat.No messing with the mesh, resin and hardener of fiberglass patching not to mention the paining/finishing required to make my repair look somewhat decent.Mixed the two parts per instructions and made a permanent good looking repair(white on white) with very little time and effort.After over a month of almost daily use and no leaks.Great versatile product

Great for rotten window repairs
I've tried a lot of different epoxy putty products and this is a good one. Several years ago I used WoodEpox and found it to be effective but expensive. There are some important differences between that one and these pool putty products, which I'll detail here.YumCraft Epoxy Putty appears to be everything the seller says. I have used it to fill in gaps in my rotten window frames and sills. I then sand it down and paint it. I like how dense the product is. It dries really hard. It's not a quick job to sand it (I use rotary burr drill bits, a mouse electric sander, and a bit of hand sanding) but at least it holds its shape and stays smooth. Wood epox sanded a little more easily but I found that it flaked and little chunks came out now and then. It was harder to get a really smooth final surface.WoodEpox is MUCH easier to knead. All pool putty products I've tried so far are very dense, like this one, and therefore extremely tough on your hands. My skinny lady hands are always fatigued after I do it. But for the price and outcome I'm willing to bear it.Comparing YumCraft Epoxy Putty to other pool putty products that I've tried, it's nice that it comes in two resealable plastic tubs. The others haven't. I've had epoxy putty in tubs that lasted years that way. So if you might not use it all, these tubs are nice. That said, it's hard to get it out of each tub. You'll want a metal knife. The tiny (tiny!) putty knife they include doesn't do the trick at all.The included plastic gloves are okay, but I prefer 'vinyl exam gloves' bought in the correct, tight size. I need a few pairs of gloves if I'm working for a few hours.YumCraft also includes substantial, detailed instructions, ingredients, and other info such as shrinkage (0%). For instance, they note that you can unstick your fingers from the putty while working with it by dipping them in water. I have often used a tiny bit of rubbing alcohol, which definitely works, but that could be detrimental to the product. With this product, water is just fine.A few other tips from an amateur DIY-er: Use wood hardener before you put the putty into your window frames. Try to shove the putty into the gaps with your fingers, then smooth it with a good solid putty knife (not the one they include) using a little water on it. Try to get flat surfaces established with the knife and some water before it dries. I have been shoving pretty big wads of this stuff (2" x 3") into holes and have not seen any warping from heat and humidity so far.All in all, this is a nice product. Great for window repair, but I imagine it would be terrific for pools or even small crafts.

Easy to use
I like that I could portion control this epoxy and not have to use it all at once. This helped me fill in some gaps in my concrete block wall. It was easy to use and apply and created a nice solid patch.
