Default glazing putty

Seems we used to use glazing putty to stopper holes in the boat where we
took stuff off. Maybe so, maybe not---my memory isn't good anymore.
Anyway, would glazing putty be a good filler for that kind of use?

Go to the hobby store and get some 15 minute epoxy and microballoon filler.

Glazing putty is an ancient compound consisting of linseed oil and ground
rock. It is a good filler if squeezing seeds and grinding rocks is the
level of your technology. Otherwise, you may want to consider modern
things like epoxy, polyurethane, or polyester.
