Hmmmm… The ‘whiteout’ version sounds less dangerous…
Less dangerous than using Testor’s Contour Putty designed for plastic models?

Less dangerous than smearing acetone all over the hull and watching all the detail melt away…
Eric,
That is why I have switched to Testor’s Contour Putty. It is designed for use with plastic models, and it comes from the tube in a thin line that fills each CAD line to perfection. It is so very easy to use.

The amount of acetone in nail polish remover will not melt the plastic. Aircraft modellers have been using this technique for years to fill out/smooth fuselage center seams:

works with squadron white or green putty. Will NOT work with the Mr Surfacer line of products
Dont knock it if you have not tried it…
Not knocking it, just don’t want to risk it on a $250 model if there are less inherently dangerous options…
