Uses:
ZAP CA Is the
thinnest CA in the ZAP product line. The penetrating or wicking
ability of this glue makes it a favorite of modelers around the
world. Balsa wood is bonded almost instantaneously, with the glue
sometimes traveling several inches into the parts. The consistent
performance and strength of the glue is what sets it apart from
other brands. This product is also widely used throughout the hobby
industry; the thin formula allows the glue to go where most cannot.
Some uses besides hobbies and crafts include; jewelry manufacturing
and repair, taxidermy, mold and pattern making, furniture
refinishing and antique repair, auto detailing, archery, darts,
dental molds and patterns, and ceramic repair. Wood turners like
the penetrating ability for hardening soft areas and preventing the
propagation of cracks. Furniture refinishers can count on ZAP CA to
wick under loose veneer without having to remove the piece and
chance damage. Mold and pattern shops coat the outside of the wood
pattern, hardening it for final finishing. Cracks almost disappear
in ceramic and hardened plaster pieces. Use it on fiberglass and
cloth to bond, reinforce, and strengthen wood parts and assemblies.
Plastic parts can be joined with an almost invisible
seam.

Hints:
This glue is FAST!!
It travels fast and sets up fast. It will bond skin instantly.
Because of this glues wicking ability it will travel along an edge
or seam for several inches. It will penetrate deep in to a crack
just by applying the glue at one end. When bonding balsa wood, hold
the parts together and apply a small amount of glue at the seam
where the parts meet. The glue will penetrate the joint and wick
into the balsa parts. Don’t hold the balsa to close to the joint or
you will find that you are glued to your parts. For porous products
you may have to apply more glue to get the strongest bond, it would
be best to try bonding some test pieces to determine the proper
amount. When sealing and hardening wood parts use in a well
ventilated area and work on small sections. Do not use kicker with
this glue, in most cases the glue will have set before you can
apply the accelerator. For critical applications test sample joints
for designed strength requirements.
