Review on πŸš€ Revolutionizing 3D Printing: EPAX Water Washable Printers Unleashed! by Seth Damain

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Good resin, low odor, easy cleaning

After a few prints and used up most of the bottle, my first resin prints so to speak, I think I can give a review of the resin. At first I smelled faintly of tar, but I noticed that the alcohol I use to clean my prints is much more than the tar smell. Second, resin works well in printing. I used an Epax E6 printer and a Chitubox with default water washable resin settings. I was satisfied with every print: good details, good adhesion of the build plate, easy cleaning, overall I was also satisfied with my first foray into 3D printing with this resin. I've just started using regular Epax resin and a couple of things immediately struck me. This water-washable tar actually has a much lower odor than other causes. I also noticed that water washable resin seems to have more resin that can be washed off the surface of the prints. And the third thing I noticed is that it sticks to the build plate more than hard resin. A couple of prints stuck very badly to the build plate and I was concerned that the resin would tear before it detached from the plate. Overall a good resin but maybe a little different than other resins. Just to clarify, this was the first resin I've ever used, so my opinion is based on using this bottle and making two prints with a different resin.

Pros
  • 3D printing consumables
Cons
  • Expensive
