Leaves sticky residue on plate and prints

I use Elegoo Mercury to clean my prints. I've used denatured alcohol to clean prints from Elegoo's ABS-like resin in the past, which has always worked great. This water washable resin leaves a sticky residue unless you take a brush and wipe it off with water. But even after cleaning, a layer of white residue remains after curing.

I do worry about the quality though: if left under UV cure for too long it tends to warp quickly and even before full post-curing occurs. (Larger parts usually take a little longer to cure in the post-cure process). Honestly I would advise the average…

Pros
  • 3D printing liquid
