Forgive my ignorance...
I have seen many models over these pages and elsewhere that prior to the paint stage have blue or red patches around details and sometimes seams...
Is this thinned putty, mr surfacer or something like that?

Usually putty of some type, which has been used to fill a surface imperfection. It is sanded smooth with the surrounding area to give a smooth, continous surface. Or it is left rough to represent casting marks or weld seams, etc.
