I have a small jar i made up of it last Saturday. And i was gone all week and came back and the stuff was still ok. I made a fairly big batch of it, and so far its still good. Like this one poster said. their might be air bubbles in it after you sand it down, but nothing a small swipe of regular putty can take care of. This method is really good also if you have a deep sink hole and you want to fill it up. When i made mine. i just cut the sprue pieces up small and put them in the jar, poured a little cement in, enough to cover them up and let it sit. although the curiosity got the best of m

no more dangerous than using it just as a regular glue as far as i know.
-
Heres the cement I use here it is after the plastic has melted. i gave it about 4 hours ish. the longer u wait the better, just to be sure its all good and melted. here i have put the plastic putty on a couple sink holes. the good thing is, the plastic is the same color.
-
all you do is put small cut pieces of sprue into a small jar of like testors liquid cement. wait a while, i waited about 3 hours for mine to fully melt. all the plastic sprue pieces you put in will melt from the cement. or take and pour a small amount of the liquid cement into a small jar, i use the small 1/4 oz ones. drop in your sprue pieces and wait. then when its "cured", and all melted ,just dab on a sink hole or whatever and it fills it right up and melts into the surrounding plastic. Then sand and you cant even tell the difference, unlike with putty
-
ive just found that melted plastic in liquid cement is probably better than any putty on the market! im sure its been said here before but i just wanted to put my worthless 2 cents in.
