High Clear Resin

Buen precio y calidad

I put my resin printer away after 3 prints a few years ago as the odor was just impossible. This stuff? Nothing. It honestly worries me, because I assume a mask, goggles, and gloves should still be worn and it’s just as risky as stinky resin. Maybe more! No idea. But ya can’t smell it. Very clear. Very easy to print. Cheap. Came in less than 24 hours. What’s not to love?

I am currently using the High Clear resin with the Photon Mono 5s printer. The High Clear resin requires higher exposure times than the other AnyCubic resins I've used, otherwise it will be prone to avoid adhesion problems, supports stretching and warping the model, etc. I didn't realize this at first and mistakenly thought "High Clear" was short for "High Speed Clear" since they are both on the same product page, and so I promptly dialed in the wrong settings on my very first print with it - oops! Lesson learned: pay attention to the details and don't make assumptions based on the name. Still, I kind of wish they'd called it "Super Clear" or better yet given it a separate product listing to avoid that potential confusion. Anyway, High Clear may print slowly, but I feel the end result is worth it and so far I love this resin. The model in the picture is cured but unvarnished and was printed using the default 0.05mm layer height. I have also used it more recently at 0.03mm layer height at roughly 80% of the recommended exposure for 0.05mm and the results are great. High Clear performs much better than the clear eco resin I used previously, both better at avoiding yellowing on post-cure and seems like it may be more resilient (I haven't done any formal drop tests or other serious stress tests; this is just based on how flexible thin parts remain). I have used the High Clear resin in a minimally ventillated room with a VOC meter and it does indeed seem low VOC during printing and also when having small amounts of liquid resin and just-removed models sitting exposed to the air. Once a model is washed with alcohol (but before the final post-cure), the drying/evaporation process does cause a small spike on my VOC meter - but even leaving a very wet model drying in open air for a while doesn't read as high for VOCs as if I use even a small quantity of rubber glue in the same room.

Great clear resin to use! You do have to change your settings to a higher seconds count on the curing time during each later. Other Resins im around 2.3 seconds i have to set up 3 seconds for this one.

Crystal clear resin prints spray some 2k clear on it after curing and looks like glass
