Cleaning
- After removing the printed object from the building stage, use an ultrasonic cleaner and 95% alcohol for 60 seconds to remove uncured resin from the surface.
- Make sure that the object has been thoroughly cleaned, then leave it in a cool, well-ventilated place for at least 30 minutes without exposure to light. Alternatively, you may gently apply compressed air to dry the printed object.
- For hollowed models, make sure that you have cleaned every detail and inner parts thoroughly.
Post-Curing
For best precision and mechanical properties, use Phrozen Post-Curing Lamps
(Cure V2, Cure Luna or Cure Mega) to cure the parts for at least 30 minutes.
