In 1968 Jack and Lena Rickman founded The Milliput Company to manufacture a two-part epoxy putty for Industry and DIY markets. Standard (Yellow/Grey) Milliput was the first grade produced which, when equal quantities were mixed together, cured to a hard finish and then could be sanded, drilled, filed, moulded, turned and painted.
It was during 1970 that modellers worldwide soon began adopting Standard (Yellow/Grey) Milliput to fill gaps in metal models, converting stock figurines, making buildings and scenic base work and for the production of master models for commercial purposes. Both amateurs and professionals have come to rely on Milliput for the production of superbly detailed and refined miniatures.
