Review on Siraya Tech Simple Washable UV Curing by Keith Maynard

Revainrating 5 out of 5

This is now my favorite resin

I truly feel like I'm getting the best prints I've ever gotten from my Elegoo Mars. I can also reduce the exposure time by 0.5-1 second depending on the thickness of the layer, which speeds up the print. It cleans very easily but I think 15% alcohol might be a bit conservative. And because of the ultra-low viscosity, it flows very well if you leave your palette at an angle for a while to allow excess resin to drain. I use a 50% alcohol blend, rinse in bath 1 for about 20 seconds, then switch to bath 2 for 20 seconds and it cleans great. I found that I didn't have to scrub or rub any areas to remove the resin. It really helps extend the life of my spirit with a cleaner drain and lower alcohol content. gray resin on the bottle just enough to make it a bit more opaque and it works great. This may affect the alcohol percentage for the cleaning a bit, but not enough to worry about. I stick to a somewhat short post-print cure so my pieces don't get very brittle and I'm very happy with the results. The only caveat I have is that the printed piece is very susceptible to moisture, so don't soak too much. Your piece, this also applies after curing, so do not absorb excessive moisture. Coloring with conventional acrylic paints is not a problem, it settles perfectly.
