ZAP CA is the thinnest adhesive in the ZAP series, renowned worldwide for its excellent wicking ability. When applied to balsa wood, it swiftly penetrates and bonds the material, sometimes traveling a few inches into the surface. This product stands out from its competitors thanks to its consistent performance and exceptional strength. It's a popular choice not only in the crafting and hobby industry but also in 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 often use it to harden soft areas and prevent the propagation of cracks, while furniture restorers rely on its wicking action to strengthen loose veneers without causing further damage. Mold and pattern makers coat the exterior of wooden patterns with ZAP CA to harden them for final finishing, and it works wonders in eliminating cracks in ceramic and hardened plaster pieces. This adhesive is also ideal for bonding, reinforcing, and strengthening wooden parts and assemblies coated in fiberglass or cloth, as well as for creating nearly invisible seams in plastic parts.
