ELEGOOWater Washable 3D Printer Resin LCD UV-Curing Resin 405nm Standard Photopolymer Resin for LCD 3D Printing - Clear Green 1000gCarbonfree CertifiedClimeCo Certified

I have been using a resin 3D printer for around a year. Prior to that I used a filament printer for some time. I bought a resin printer because I liked the quality in smaller prints. I was not however excited about working with a liquid.My brother who has many resin printers suggested water washable to me. I have a clean and cute station but I didn’t like the thought of having a big tub of alcohol on the side and waste loads of it for the infrequency I print.I got a couple of bottles of this and it’s really easy to use. I take the whole plate off my printer after it’s had a short while to drip and put it right into the wash station with warm water in it. When it’s done I trim it and find it really easy to do once it’s been in warm water and then onto the cure station. Worth noting for those of you new to this - do NOT throw the water you wash it in or run any of the resin down the sink. That’s a good way to screw up your pipes. I have a spot outside where I dump the water away from where any animals would have a sniff around and where there’s no plants.I also don’t clean up my tank anywhere near as often as I should but I’ve found it’s no issue to stir around the resin with my finger, pour more in, stir again and go printing. Just again make sure there’s no UV light or direct sunlight anywhere near the machine.

I have just started to print with resin and have only tried a few manufacturers but this is by far the smelliest of the ones tested so far. I have used both creality and anycubic water washable resins with good results from all.I have a Halot one and the settings needed to print successfully are different from what the manufacturer recommends, I had to drop the exposure time to 3.6sec from the 8 sec that elegoo suggest, with bottom layer exposure time of 55sec. This is much higher than what the creality resin needed at 2.7sec and 40sec exposure times.The Smokey black looks amazing when printed and I did water wash but I find that rinsing in IPA as the last clean gives a better end result, using the ipa as the final rinse gives the ipa a very long life and I use very little with a spray bottle.Elegoo resins are good, but you do need a good mask with chemical filtration or else I felt a little sick and you can taste it at the back of your throat, creality is the least smelly used up to now but I just bought the sunlu resin which is supposed to be even less smelly.

Currently printing structures and such for MESBG. Pieces are coming out really well, and easy to clean with just water.

This is my first foray intro Resin Printing. I have been using FDM printers for 6 years now, and I wanted to try out the MSLA option too. This is my first time using resins, and I chose this Elegoo Water Washable resin as a beginner.First of all the bottle came well packed, inside a box and sealed in a thick plastic bag so no real risk of getting resin everywhere I'd the bottle breaks. The bottle itself is plastic, but very strong and thick, and it comes very well sealed. It also had a small brush in the package.The resin smells. Quite bad. I can't compare it to other resins, but it is an acrid smell. I bought a respirator and filters for VOCs and I don't have any problems now. First time using it without a mask, it did give me bad headaches.Dialing in the resin wasn't very difficult. I used Elegoo's spreadsheet to match my printer settings (Elegoo Mars 3 Pro). The test print that came with the printer came out fine. I also did a Siraya Tech calibration which helped me dial in the settings further.This was washed in tap water (not in the sink). I think it doesn't clean very well the small details, but I used the brush that came in the package to get in every nook and cranny. Still, an ultrasonic cleaner would probably produce better results.I have cured the resin with a small UV light I have from smartphone tempered glass installation kit and it seemed to work well enough. I do need a proper UV light to do it.Even after curing there is a smell to the printed parts. I'm not sure if that's from the curing light not being strong enough. But you can only smell it if you hold the prints close to your nose.All in all I'm happy with this resin. I just wished it was cheaper.

Bought for Anycubic Photon Mono 4k.Good resin as far as I can tell, holds details well. Compared to Anycubic'c WW resin its more opaque and so requires a slightly longer exposure time. Under UV light the resin appears blotchy.Also requires longer cure time in Wash n' Cure station than Anycubic WW, maybe slightly more durable on thinner pieces.

Experience level: Beginner in 3D resin printsPrinter used: Anycubic Photon Mono 4K & Anycubic Wash & CureReason for purchase: Cost (cheaper than Anycubic's equivalent), Delivery Time (arrived faster than alternative), Maintenance (lower overall costs by using water to wash instead of IPA.Remember to set Photon UV Exposure rate from 100% to between 60 & 70 when using this resin.Very sensitive to temperature (successful prints at 20 C - but not at 19)Cures to an off-white (ivory) - but gets whiter if you leave the cured piece on a sunny window sill.would buy again

Could not get settings down with this bottle maybe a dodgy batch not had issues with same product before. Elegoo sent a free sample to try out and that has worked well thanks guys. 5 stars for your service.

Once got the settings right very good quality printouts only problems we had were of our own making having only just started 3d printing
