thats more for models and you could just find something cheaper probably. you can just use a hotgluegun. its also easy to remove if you ever want to take it off later on.

I brought this up a couple days ago.. Magnet said it would work BUT it may damage the gear box since it's made out of plastic.. I don't mind the price of the putty since that's the only kind tower got.. I just want to know if it works..

Hot Glue can Damage the Dif.. its Plastic..

If you wanna Be Gross, Pre Chewed Chewing Gum will work..

Both PlayDough and Blu Tac are Oproven Diff lockers for Electrics down to 15 Turn Motors.

you don't have to put burning hot hotglue into it, you can let it cool for afew seconds then glob it in or use the gun before it gets too hot. i used a kneadable eraser, which is pretty much blutac/poster tac/stickytac and it eventually wore out and i had to regum it up, but it still worked.

8 Months On a Blu Tac Diff running a 19x2T Drifting at least 30 mins Each Day or Up to 4 Hours on a Sunday

Just locked the Diff on my TL-01 HBX Offroader.. No Sign of Trouble with Blu Tac with it either...
