How is this glue different than the Beacon 3-in1 glue? I use it mainly for paper projects.

This glue is used for scrapbooking. The difference between 3 in 1 and Zip Dry is that Zip Dry is of archival quality and it is lignin-free. It can rubs completely away while wet without leaving any sticky residue.

how long does it take to dry?

It takes just a few minutes to dry. It is the absolute best paper glue I have ever used.

is this super thick and bottle only 3/4 full when new?

Zip Dry should be a thick viscosity, but should be able to flow easily. However, bottle should not be 3/4 full when new.

Does this work with acetate?

Please note that we have not tested this product with acetate. You will have to test it.
