Cleaning

  1. 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.
  2. 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.
  3. 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.
