1st, l understand from what l've read here that this might be the worst putty available, but it's all l have at my disposal. Didn't get the body work quite right, so l need to strip the paint, sand some more & re-primer. The putty work is fine, so my question is: Will this putty stand up to a bath in Purple Power? Thanks, Bart.

I've yet to see the putty that will stand up to paint removal agents like CSC, Purple Power, or Power Dissolver. The Testors (and old AMT) putties virtually dissolve when dropped into the dunk tank. Even if the stuff doesn't come right off, it will absorb the stripper which will, at best, complicate repainting efforts. Bottom line...either remove the existing paint with sandpaper, or count on redoing all of the putty work.
