Mighty Putty is mighty useful after getting to know it better (tips)
**Really requires surface prep and tack time**I too was disappointed with my first usage of this product, finding that it didn't bond at all, but didn't give up and after re-reading the directions and following TO THE LETTER, I am very pleased with the results I have gotten. I've used this stuff for ALL KINDS of things since - crafts and improvised solutions. When used properly it is strong enough to hold together my car's cracked front bumper and after sanding and painting is undetectable. I will concede that it takes a bit of practice to work with, but it has proved very versatile and useful enough that I want to always have at least one tube of the stuff in the tool kit at all times.For those who are having troubles, I have found that in order for the stuff to adhere well it really requires the surfaces to be roughened so that it can grip well - its a no-go on anything smooth. Also, the step of "working it in" to the surface to be bonded is very important. This is not a set-it/forget it product, as it takes a couple of minutes to realy get tacky at all enough to even stick, which means that it rubs off the part you just rubbed on when trying to push it into place, but then once it starts to grab it becomes a little easier to work with. You will know that activation has begun and time is short when the product begins to warm slightly, so make sure to be ready before starting or it will harden before you finish.I have also discovered it is easiest to work with in very thin slices of the "log" that are evenly cut to ensure a proper mix - I will start a tube by slicing it like a salami with a razor blade into pieces no thicker than a 1/4 inch (often smaller)as this speeds activation and is easier to work. Also make sure the tube stays well sealed (I re-wrap the product in cellophane in the tube before closing) as this is much more effective when not dried out at all.There is a grey plumbers epoxy putty that is very similar and a little softer, which I prefer to use on wet projects, but the Mighty Putty has thus far proved mighty useful after getting to know it a bit.Follow up/Update (Jan. 2012):Glad to see some of you have found the review helpful! Just wanted to state that its been a couple years since the initial write-up and I still make sure to have a tube in the tool chest, one in the car, and one in the desk drawer. Its really handy to have for the darndest things like stripped plastic knobs and loose fittings. I've even molded replacement parts out of the stuff for all sorts of things to wide and varied to cover because it cures quickly enough that most things can be used rather immediately. (JB weld is no longer for me as it is much too messy and takes too long to harden.) Its become the first thing I look to for most repairs that aren't served by superglue or hotglue as an option. The only other thing I use as much is probably the clear drying liquid epoxy resin that sets in 5 minutes for things that need a more pourable repair.I can't use gloves with it though since it seems to just stick to them instead of itself. I knead it with the bare hands so it doesn't make a huge mess, and a little water keeps it from sticking to me and serves to smooth also. All told, I stand by the original 5 stars I gave it a couple years ago as it is inexpensive and effective. I'm sure if you're an improviser like me, you will find it just as indespensible as duct tape.

Might Putty works well with medium size mirrors.
We have a series of mirrors on our dining room wall. One came down and needed resetting.My husband and I went to a local hardware store. They didn't have Mighty Putty which Iknow works well. The strips that were supposed to work that the clerk showed my husbanddidn't work with the mirror falling down on the carpet. I ordered Mighty Putty being happyto find it again after looking all over. The mirror has stayed in place ever since.

Very versatile
This product works almost as well as the ad claims. I have used it to repair PVC pipe, polyresin, wood and ceramic tile. It does work best on porous surfaces with some "grab."It does not work well on surfaces that get wet, and my attempt to temporarily patch a wet PVC pipe were unsuccessful.It does sand and drill easily, and takes paint well. I would suggest priming the area you are going to paint first, because the putty absorbs the paint very quickly.I repaired a polyresin garden statute that set out over an entire Midwest winter, and the Magic Putty held without problem.

This stuff REALLY works
After hitting my side view mirror of my car on a gate entrance keypad, I realized it would cost me 300 dollars to get a new mirror assembly. Instead, I've been using gorilla glue and super glue to attach my mirror and then every month or so the mirror would fall off again. This mighty putty took me about 15 minutes to apply and took two out of the three tubes. First, I sanded down the mirror and the part snapped off on my vehicle, wet it slightly, and then began working the mighty putty in order to activate it. After it turned white and became warm in my hands, I molded it around my mirror and my car. Within 2 hours it was completely dry and hard as a rock. To test out its strength, I took my car through a car wash and it remained in tact, unlike the gorilla glue fix. I thank mighty putty for saving me 300 dollars and giving me a solid fix.

Is this the real Mighty Putty? I don't think so!
I have used Mighty Putty in the past and it was GREAT! This package of Mighty Putty looks different, even the color of the putty is not the same. It did not work at all like what I have used in the past. I contacted the Mighty Putty site and asked why the product changed. It didn't change and they thought I may have gotten counterfeit merchandise. I don't know if that is the case or not, but the color of this putty is a brighter green than the original, it doesn't mix as well and worst of all it DID NOT work! The real Mighty Putty works wonderful! I have fixed leaks in plumbing, holes and breaks in china and porcelain and even repaired metal hinges with it. The putty I received with my last order could not do any of these things! Be aware of what you are ordering. If you order the real stuff, it is GREAT. The other, stinks and isn't worth the time or effort to use.

Difficult to remove
Well first of all this stuff does work great if you read the instructions and do as told. Fixed my towel rack rock solid. However, I knocked it off and now this putty is like cement and I can't remove it to restick the rack. The only instructions that came in the box are how to install it, and after searching everywhere, I figured out that you must use acetone. So I soaked it in 100% acetone nail polish all night long(I must be using the wrong thing) and it's still cement. Not that this is a bad product, I'm just a bit annoyed that the makers wouldn't post a freakin' solution on how to remove this.Asked on a few forums and hopefully someone will know how, but for now I sit here with a bigger hole that I originally had and a useless towel rack.......

I have been amazed at how well it has worked
I bought this product with low expectations - it is an "as seen on TV" product. I have been amazed at how well it has worked! I used it to hang up a shower head, fixed a hole in my sink and repaired a broken fridge magnet. So far, so good, nothing has fallen off or leaked! The smell of the putty is a little strong at first, but that goes away completely once it has dried. I am actually looking around my house to see what else I can fix!
