DAP recently introduced two new adhesives for household repairs. A hybrid adhesive, RapidFuse® Ultra Clear All Purpose Adhesive reportedly dries and stays truly clear, while RapidFuse Fast Curing Gel Adhesive is formulated specifically to adhere to uneven surfaces.

“Since its introduction, RapidFuse Fast Curing Adhesive has become a favorite of contractors and DIYers alike for its ability to provide a fast and durable bond for virtually any repair project,” said Kate Piche, group product director at DAP. “With these new additions to the RapidFuse line, DAP is delivering superior clarity to users with the same durability and versatility they have come to expect from RapidFuse.”

Offering superior clarity for clear bonding performance, new RapidFuse Ultra Clear All Purpose Adhesive reportedly bonds virtually everything to easily complete mess-free and aesthetically pleasing home repairs and DIY projects. Unlike other adhesives that dry in a cloudy opaque bond and turn yellow over time, DAP reports that RapidFuse Ultra Clear dries and stays clear with exceptional color stability for years to come. The hybrid adhesive is also self-leveling and features a non-brittle formula, allowing it to be used to fill in scratches and gaps on substrates for a smooth surface repair.

Formulated for both interior and exterior use, RapidFuse Ultra Clear offers superior flexibility and durability for a long-lasting bond, even on materials that flex. The adhesive is low odor, provides superior water resistance, and is dishwasher safe once dry.

According to DAP, its new RapidFuse Fast Curing Gel Adhesive is ideal for bonding plastic, metal, glass, wood, rubber, tile, and more. The thick gel sets in just 30 seconds, does not drip, creates no mess, and dries clear. The thick gel formula won’t drip or run, making it particularly well suited for hard-to-reach areas or repairs on uneven or vertical surfaces.
