Review on ESUN 405Nm LCD 3D Printer Rapid Resin UV Curing Resin ABS-Like Rapid Resin Hard Tough Resin High Impact High Tough Photopolymer Resin For Photon UV Curing LCD 3D Printer by John Ghattamaraju

So far this is one of the best if not the best engineering resins I've tried.

With this resin I get beautiful, very accurate prints. I can see some shrinkage, if any, and the parts seem flexible even after the test I do when I repeat the supports. I've noticed some clumps of pigment in the resin, but they don't seem to have affected my prints so far. I wish the gray was a little darker, but that's a matter of taste. The smell is definitely more smelly. But I would still recommend installing activated carbon filters on your printer. I have attached my printing profile for Elegoo Mars 2. This is a direct copy of the EPAX Hard profile, which I've had nothing but success with. Update: I spoke too soon I think. One of my most recent prints has a cosmetic and physical defect due to one of the age spots. I continue to use this resin with more of a focus on age spot removal, but eSun should definitely fix that. Update 2: I have noticed that after a few days this resin becomes quite brittle like the others. Avantek Eupheng's high strength resin is the only resin I've tested that doesn't become brittle after a while, but unfortunately it's not currently available.
