Product Description

Zap Zip Kicker

The Ultimate CA Accelerator

Zip Kicker is the industry-standard way to accelerate the cure time of all cyanoacrylate (CA) super glues. When sprayed or brushed onto a joint, it forces an immediate chemical reaction, turning liquid glue into a solid bond instantly. Whether you are filling large gaps or need a structural fix right now, Zip Kicker ensures you never have to wait for glue to dry.

Key Benefits:

• Instant Results: Forces CA glues to set immediately, allowing you to continue building without clamps or tape.
• Gap Filling & Fillets: Perfect for creating structural fillets or filling large cracks in wood and plastic. It creates a hard outer shell that cures the adhesive from the outside in.
• Material Safe: Unlike many accelerators, Zip Kicker is not acetone-based. It is generally safe for use on most plastics, metals, paints, and fabrics without hazing the finish.

Targeted Applications

RC & Scale Modelling

Speed up your build by using Zip Kicker to fixture spars and ribs. For complex assemblies, try using Slo-Zap to get your parts perfectly aligned, then hit the joint with a quick spray of Zip Kicker to lock it in place forever. It is also effective for setting glue through thin balsa sheeting by spraying the reverse side.

Woodworking & Woodturning

A favourite for furniture makers and woodturners alike. Use it to progressively fill large cracks in blanks, saving pieces that might otherwise be lost. Because it won't damage finishes, you can move from gluing to painting or polishing almost immediately.

Pro-Tips for Professional Results

• Less is More: A light mist is all that is required to start the catalytic reaction. Over-applying will not speed up the process once the reaction has begun.
• Pre-Treating: For non-porous parts or hard-to-reach areas, apply Zip Kicker to one surface and Zap Glue to the other. The bond will set the moment they touch.
• Precision Control: Use a small brush to apply Zip Kicker exactly where you need it for delicate jewellery or scale detail work.

⚠️ CRITICAL WARNING: Never spray Zip Kicker near your open bottles of CA glue. Even a microscopic amount of overspray on the bottle tip can cause the entire bottle of glue to harden and ruin the product.
