How do you make green stuff cure faster?
Curing Speed The speed that green stuff cures at is affected by temperature. The warmer it is the faster it will cure. Cooling it down will slow curing time but the putty becomes stiffer the colder it gets, so it doesn’t balance out. However, speeding up drying time might be exactly what you need.
Does green stuff need to be primed?
Subject: Can you paint directly onto green stuff? Yeah, decent quality acrylic paint doesn’t really need a primer for painting onto most surfaces. But if you’re painting a mixed-material miniature, some form of solid base coat is necessary for best results.

It is malleable when set, allowing it to be bent into shape without breaking.
What’s the difference between green stuff and Milliput?
Green stuff sticks better, especially fresh, but is more rubbery and harder to smooth into tiny cracks or seams. Milliput doesn’t want to be made into very thin sheets or ropes, and takes a softer touch when sculpting because it doesn’t have much stiffness when uncured.
