ELEGOO ABS-Like 2.0 3D Printer Resin 1kg Grey, Rapid Precise Printing Resin 405nm LCD UV-Curing for LCD 3D Printer

Good value for the cost. And, printed items a very durable. Product does have a strong odor, but that was expected.

So far the strongest resin Ive used, though still prone to breaking the more delicate pieces.

This resin has worked quite well for me. It, however, is a bit brittle and not suitable for load bearing parts.

The test print that came on the flashdrive wth my Saturn 2, printed near flawless! I had to make a few settngs corrections when printing with supports. The settng that worked for me on my Saturn 2 were: Bottom exposure 35 sec, exposure time; 2.8 sec, lft speed 60, Retraction speed 188-200. This was the Elegoo ABS-like Smokey Black.

More resistant than water-washable resin, while still holding all the detail. Get this if youre doing miniatures.

I bought this thinking it would be better than the water washable stuff Id been making miniatures out of because Id been having problems with brittleness, well, its not brittle, so a few stars for that I guess, but then it requires longer time and seems very very temperature sensitive so if you have a space that might have a range of temperatures throughout the day.... well... you might not get your print. If you adjust your time up youll overexpose and lose detail. I dont like this stuff, and Ive got too much left over to just stop using it, but damn if its not the most consistently disappointing resin Ive used.

So I got the clear resin……. This stuff is hot garbage. Maybe I got a bad batch or something. I noticed there wasn’t very many reviews on it so maybe not enough people have used it. And I’m printing on the Mars 3, Elegoos own brand of printer, so this should be formulated to work great with their printer, right? Wrong. Anyway…… I started out not being able to get good quality prints, I mean it was bad. They were either completely failing, supports would stop printing or not print at all, or I was getting waves of globs of resin randomly in my print. Almost like it was running down the part and extra UV light was curing it as it dripped down. So I assumed I had an exposure time issue. So I set up the Resin Exposure XP2 Validation Matrix test print to figure out the correct exposure settings. Elegoo calls for around 12s of exposure. I set up validation matrix test prints from 6s all the way to 15s……. 6, 7, and 8 seconds didn’t look too bad, and 9-15s actually looked pretty darn good. I determined 12-15s was best. So I printed models I have printed great before within these exposure ranges multiple times, I was starting to get actual full prints off the print bed, but was still getting the globs of cured resin, and any fine detailed areas, and areas with supports close together were just becoming globs themselves. Needless to say, I went through an entire bottle and days wasted trying to get this stuff right. $38 in resin gone with nothing to show for it, except garbage. I switched to Anycubic’s clear resin, all prints came out perfectly. I won’t be buying this stuff again.

This is great. My husband and I have ordered this particular resin several times. It works well and has good results from the printer. The only down side is there is a odor with using this resin. It is not overwhelming, but good to be aware if using around a person sensitive to odors. Odor is not present once printing is done.

After finally running out of my last bottle of the regular photopolymer resin I tried this out and it works quite well. I didnt have to adjust my settings at all and everything prints the way it should. Its still fairly brittle after you have cured it but I havent gotten any chipping while filing parts. Which I have had issues with before with other types of resins. This will probably be my go to plain grey resin in the future.

I printed a Minnie Mouse for my Mom at my brothers request. After accidentally brushing the tail it flexed without damage. But on a similar item with standard resin, the tail snapped off. My brother had printed it with his FDM using PLA and the tail snapped off with a slight bump. ABS-Like Resin has the flexibilty of ABS and is my resin of choice.
