Easy to work with
Great product. Easy to mix and it has a good working time for setup and curing. Gives a professional look when done. I've tried the steel and aluminum versions and both have worked well.

High quality product
The stuff does what is is supposed to. Slightly "thick" to be easy to work with as bedding, but manageable. Somewhat expensive but results are of highest quality.

This stuff needs its own release agent
Iv used this stuff for 20+ years( in Brass, Steel,and Titanium But Mostly in Aluminium Putty "F" which Iv found to be the Best.) It all how ever is a little to thick on a normal day to work easily, and I find that I need to heat the plastic tub up by placing it in a pot of boiling water to get it to flow better, this helps But it cools quickly, and is a very expensive item here in Australia, Iv had very mixed results with it over the years, Its hard to Find a "reliable release agent" for it, I would now suggest the New NON Flammable Release agent from brownell's and while you are there buy the New Accuglass GEL Non Flammable bedding kit as well, As its a much better item and is taylormade for the job at hand, Plus the fact that the new Non Flammable Accuglass kit can be sent safely by Air to us poor folk in Australia is a very Big bonus and Accuglass is fairly priced too. Cheers to all from G Hull Australia

Not impressed
I have bedded numerous stocks. I bought the Devcon Steel Putty because of different reviews I ahve seen. I was not impressed. The consistency when mixed is that of peanut butter and it is some what good to work with. However, that is where the praise stops. Didn't bed worth a darn. Good if you need to bed a recoil area but as far as the rest of the inletted areas, it was not what I expected. Properly cleaned/degreased stock and had trouble adhering to the synthetic stock. I would recommend this only for recoil lug areas but I will stick with Acraglass for all my beeding jobs.

leaky jar
The contents of the Resin jar leaked all over the package in shipping. I don't know if the manufacturer used a faulty jar, or just didn't fully tighten the lid, or if Brownell's shipped me an item which had been sold to and returned by another customer. The Hardener jar was still sealed.
