Kiyonal Ace wound paste is a Japanese wound protection paste for bonsai pruning wounds and grafting cuts. It is used after pruning to cover exposed cut surfaces and help protect the wound while the tree heals. The official Kiyonal product information presents Kiyonal Ace as a premium healing compound developed specifically for bonsai use.

According to the original Japanese product information and specialist bonsai retailers, it helps protect cuts against rainwater ingress, nutrient loss, drying-related cracking of the wood, and the entry of bacteria or decay-causing organisms. It is also suitable for grafting work, where protection of exposed tissue is important for clean healing and successful union.

A characteristic feature of Kiyonal Ace is its green paste texture with some tack and viscosity. After application, it does not dry fully hard straight away, but remains semi-dry for a period, which helps prevent the protective layer from cracking as the wound surface dries. Japanese bonsai sellers also note that this version is colour-matched for satsuki bark.

For bonsai use, this makes Kiyonal Ace a practical choice where a durable protective coating is wanted after branch pruning, wound treatment or grafting. This version is supplied in a 100 g tube, a convenient size for regular bonsai work. Although some retailers position it for specific species, the official product information presents it more broadly as a specialist bonsai healing compound rather than as a product exclusively for one tree type.

Please note: apply to clean pruning wounds or grafting cuts only. If the coating begins to split as healing progresses, reapply as needed. Keep out of reach of children and store in a cool, dry place.
