ELEGOO ABS-Like 3D Printer Resin LCD UV-Curing Resin 405nm Standard Photopolymer Resin for LCD 3D Printing Grey 1000g

The grey resin has become my favorite for printing minis now. Not only does it require less base coats of paint, I can easily see imperfections that need filling or sanding.

Decent resin, does the job its supposed to. So far feels more flexible than the standard AnyCubic I use. The color is a bit deceptive. I dont know that Id call this gray as it isnt color neutral otherwise. Its more of a Pantone 2106 C. Theres a noticable blue and red tint to the color. Its not bad, but dont expect it to match anything thats actually gray. This seems like it will work well for miniatures and applications for inside a car. Good price. Overall, good. I give average reviews for an average product. This product does nothing to far exceeds my expectations, and therefore doesnt get a great or amazing rating.

I have to say this new recipe of ABS-Like translucent (Clear) doesnt work well with the old Mars 1. I will say it is pretty clear, when it works. However I could not get almost anything with supports to print without dialing the exposure times up to 30s per layer, which is excessive. Even then, the supports are all just a big blob and thus basically worthless. I could print supportless models directly on the plate just fine however. I think this new version must be designed for newer machines which dont need as long of exposure times than my old one, as I can still print just fine in good old Elegoo Gray. Sorry, but cant recommend this and if you are also having problems try to get a refund, I waited too long myself.

Just bought my very first resin printer after 3 years of FDM printing. This was my first resin and although I don’t have a reference to compare it to, I can definitely say the quality is excellent, the print quality was great, the wash and cure process, even though I do not have a wash and cure station yet, it was very easy to clean in a pickle jar and a cheap(low price, not low quality) UV light / turn table combo from Amazon. Low odor, I have my printer in a room without any windows and the smell is not bad at all. I liked it so much that I ordered 2 more bottles, I think this is going to be my go to resin.

What chemicals are involved here? What is the protocol for cleanup and disposal? Should not be available in the United States without the appropriate safety information.

This review is for the trasparent vlue abs like resin. The resin is brittle. I used grey Abs like resin before from elegoo. I bought a couple of times and i was impressed by the quality of the prints and its abs like quality. Grey became unavailable so i tried this the transparent blue. Its brittle, not abs-like at all.

Great quality. As advertised.

A caveat: I have an engineering background, but I am new to 3D printing. I bought this (ABS-like grey) and a regular Elegoo translucent resin to compare. A note about my application: Im trying to make small parts for attaching electrical connectors to the wall of a project box. Of course my priorities will be different than for making fantasy figures or other different uses. The wording of the product description makes it sound like this resin is stronger and tougher that general-purpose resins. I made the exact same design using both resins. I noticed that the ABS-like parts had less fidelity to my design than the standard ones, and did not hold their shape under even minor stress. As a crude test I held one part against the other, holding them in the same way and touching them together in symmetrical locations. The ABS-like part bent about 3 times as much as the standard one and then snapped. The boxes in which these resins ship show exactly the same specs such as hardness and flexure strength, which seems odd for products claimed to have different physical properties. On both of the actual bottles it says 60s base exposure, 8s normal. Of course there is room for user error here, but I tried to use their recommendations. Some suggestions for Elegoo: 1) Use consistent terms for the specs of each product. For example, I see Flexure strength and Extension strength for the standard, but Flexural modulus and Bending strength for ABS-like. 2) Please make profiles for these resins easily downloadable. The community spreadsheet you provide is better than nothing, but is incomplete, uses terms which dont match your products, and must be entered manually. 3) Each product is claimed to be wonderful, but there is no meaningful way to compare them. Please make it easier to choose the right product.

Very good looking resin and is strong enough for ink pens.

This resin has been great with all my prints. The detail is stunning and Im able to paint the prints easily. There is a smell to the resin, a mild plastic scent, that some may find off putting. Make sure you have plenty of ventilation.
