People Putty

Epoxy putty is a room-temperature-hardening substance used as a space-filling adhesive. It is stored until use as two components of clay-like consistency. Kneading the two components into each other creates an exothermic chemical reaction that activates the substance for use. When these are kneaded together an epoxide polymerisation reaction is catalysed. Unlike many other types of glues, epoxy adhesives are capable of filling gaps and even being used as a structural part by molding. Mighty Putty, a popular as seen on TV product advertised by the late Billy Mays, is a brand of epoxy putty.

Standard epoxies (90%) are based on Diglycidyl Ether of Bisphenol A (DGEBA, aka Bisphenol A diglycidyl ether, BADGE) formula.

Mighty Putty

Mighty Putty is a brand epoxy putty adhesive and is intended for use in household repairs. It is made up of a hardener substance (dark green on the outside), and a base substance (light grey on the inside). The cylindrical shape of the base and hardener putty means that the user does not have to measure separate amounts of the substances as with some liquid epoxies. Advertisements claim that Mighty Putty easily bonds to a wide variety of surfaces, including wet surfaces. It is advertised on television in the form of an infomercial, hosted by the late Billy Mays. In February 2008, the Dallas/Fort Worth FOX affiliate KDFW-FOX4 reviewed Mighty Putty on its "Deal or Dud" segment. Average people and the reporter struggled to get the product to work as advertised and was called a dud, although average people claims it works and a show named "Better", a nationally syndicated lifestyle TV show and other reviewers claim it works.
