Zorg - give Quick Steel a go instead of milliputt.
It's a dark grey metal putty that has a black coloured hardener packed in the middle like a stick of rock so just chop a bit off and kneed it with your fingers until the grey and black colours blend.
It gets a little warm as it sets and does so very quickly, plus it gets very very hard.
I'm not sure how well it would stay stuck to the metal on the outside, particularly if it took a knock, but I'd think it would do so much better than milliput. It would be the perfect stuff to reinforce a joint on the inside though.
Not dirt cheap for the amount you get in the tube, but it's good stuff. You should find it in places like Halfords etc..
