How To Use Crestaform Tough
- Always shake or mix the resin thoroughly before use.
- Open the container and pour the appropriate amount of resin into the tank according to the size of the printer model • make sure to not spill the resin onto the printer, LCD screen or anywhere outside of the resin tank.
- If not used for a long time, please filter the resin and pour the resin into the storage container.
Recommended Cleaning
- Soak the print in a clean IPA bath for a minimum of 2 minutes. Alternatively, rinse the part with IPA until all the visible uncured resin has been removed. Reusing IPA in multiple cleans can reduce the cleanliness and clarity of a print.
- Leave the print to dry off any residual solvent prior to post-curing.
Recommended Post-Curing
- Post-cure as soon as possible after completion of printing.
- Post-cure every print for a minimum of 10 minutes under a dedicated UV curing lamp operating at 385-405 nm wavelength. Alternatively, you can leave the print to cure for a minimum of 2 hours under direct sunlight.
- Temperature-assisted UV curing will increase the rigidity of the print.
Typical Printing Parameters*
*For DLP printers, it is recommended that light power is reduced to around 2.5mW/cm2[/vc_column_text][/vc_column][/vc_row]
