I use poster putty (get the light blue stuff because, yellow isn't as good) to hold parts in place, to hold bodies while painting, to hold bodies or parts while detail painting etc.

I find that putting poster putty on the bottom of a bottle with a body or part held in place lets me become hands free and also lets me move what I am painting to any angle for easier painting.

When you are trimming a fitting parts this can hold pieces together to see how they mesh and then just pull them apart. Poster Putty doesn't leave any oily film either.

Just using a blog to help spread HobbyTalk member's tips and hopefully get a bit more exposure for the Slot Car forums :)
