You can reuse it several times. Just knead it to blend the old paint in. After a while you will find that it is being affected by the amount of paint in it, so you will probably want to get a new batch. But you will get a lot of use out of it.

One note: do not spray Dullcote on Silly Putty as the putty will get very soft and gummy as a result.

To the silly putty buyers, does 1 dollar for one of those red eggs filled with putty a good price?

Hmm depends on what you plan to cover. If you working on a FS pieces, and lots to cover etc.. May need a few eggs.

if i were you, get like 10 - 20 eggs, pop em all open and throw them in a ziplock bag or something like that. Always nice to have more then what ya need. Cause nothing sucks more then puttying up a piece and running out of putty....
