What to know before buying
- The listing describes lower shrinkage than version 1.0 but does not provide a numerical shrinkage figure or specific print settings. Confirm compatibility and exposure settings for your printer before use.
- Customer feedback includes mixed reports of yellowing, brittleness and curing or drying time, so these outcomes may matter for prints where colour stability, toughness or turnaround time is important.
Who is it for?
A good fit for
- Owners of LCD resin printers that use a 405nm UV light source and want a 1000g bottle in Medium Slate Blue.
- Buyers prioritising the manufacturer’s claimed detail clarity and lower shrinkage for models or parts.
Less suited to
- Owners of printers that do not use the stated 405nm UV LCD process.
- Buyers who need confirmed resistance to yellowing, brittleness or a specified curing time, as the supplied information does not establish these properties.

Customer feedback highlights positive perceptions of print detail, reliability and overall resin quality, while reports are mixed on yellowing over time, brittleness and curing or drying. For buyers making detailed models on compatible 405nm LCD printers, the positive printability reports are relevant, but they do not establish consistent results or confirm the manufacturer's lower-shrinkage claims. The concerns may be more important where colour stability, toughness or predictable turnaround matters.
Positive themes
- Customers describe the resin as reliable and report good print detail.
- Some customers praise printability and value for money.
Mixed feedback
- Feedback is mixed on discoloration, with reports of yellowing over time.
- Some customers report brittleness, while curing and drying experiences also vary.
