Patch Minor Imperfections
3M™ Acryl Putty fills minor surface blemishes in cars, trucks, vans, boats and other vehicles. Our acrylic glazing putty offers excellent workability with easy and smooth spreadability that effectively conceals pinholes, sand scratches and other spot repairs. Once the putty fully cures, you'll appreciate its low rate of shrinkage and excellent adhesion to the surface. 

Better Feathering Means Less Work
Our spot putty offers high quality feathering properties, meaning it is easy to smooth out the edges to blend with the surrounding surface. Good feathering will produce more satisfactory results and reduce sanding. 

Choose the Putty that's Right for You
3M™ Acryl Putty comes in multiple formulas offering different rates of drying, working time and sanding time. Use these numbers as estimates only. Actual drying, work and sanding times will vary depending on environmental conditions.

• 3M™ Acryl-Red Putty is a medium drying formula with 2 minute work time and 20 minute sanding time

Directions for Use:

1. Do not apply when ambient temperatures are below 55ºF or above 110ºF. Use in a well ventilated area away from sparks or open flame. (Do not apply material below the water line unless top coating.)
2. For best results apply only over clean primed surfaces. (Use compressed air to remove any dust contamination).
3. Apply using a plastic or metal spreader pressing the putty firmly into the imperfections; keep the application thickness to 1/16" or less. Apply in thin coats instead of one thick application.
4. Allow to dry prior to sanding. Sand (wet or dry) using 3M™ abrasives in the following sequence: P180, P220, P320. Note: As with any putty, longer drying times will occur with high humidity, thick applications and low temperatures.
5. Re-clean surface prior to priming or top coating. (Follow paint manufacturer’s recommendation for priming and top coating).

Low Shrinkage Performance

One key benefit of the 3M Acryl Putty is its low shrinkage, which ensures better final results. This characteristic helps maintain the integrity of the repair and reduces the need for additional filling or sanding.

Low shrinkage also means the putty adheres well to surfaces, providing a durable finish that blends seamlessly with the surrounding area. This is especially important for automotive and marine applications.

The product is sold as a case of 12 tubes, each containing 14.5 oz of red putty. This pack size is convenient for professionals or enthusiasts who require multiple applications or larger projects.

Having a full case ensures you have enough material on hand for consistent repairs, reducing downtime and the need for frequent reordering. It’s a practical choice for workshops and body shops.

Easy Feathering Edges

The 3M Acryl Putty offers smooth edges with quality feathering, making it easier to blend repairs into the surrounding surface. This reduces sanding effort and improves the overall appearance of the finish.

Good feathering means less work is needed to achieve a professional look. The putty’s formulation supports this by allowing smooth transitions, which is critical for spot repairs on vehicles and boats.
