ANYCUBIC Standard 3D Printer Resin, LCD UV 405nm Rapid Photopolymer 3D Resin for 6K/8K/12K/14K LCD 3D Printers(4000g, White)

First impression:📦 The resin comes well protected in a cardboard box and a plastic protective jacket inside. The bottle is dark plastic and as with all UV resins, is light proof and a tough bottle.👀 I am using this resin with an ANYCUBIC Photon Mono 4K printer. It pours well into the printer tray and I used the printer in the garage and left it to get on with its process overnight. I wore a respirator and mask and although the odour is not great, I minimised my exposure as much as possible. You need to make sure that you don’t get the resin on your skin and I was fastidious in that regard, and all the utensils got a good clean up afterwards and blast of UV.What I liked:✔️ The resin works well with the 4k Mono printer as you would expect and produces hard and durable models with fine detail.✔️ After and IPA wash I cured the prints with UV and the resin can be sanded easily, and support struts break away well with side cutters.✔️ I have had some of the prints both painted and in raw for a while now and the resin seems as firm as day one with no creep in the detail or structure of the larger pieces.✔️ Cleaning is never the best part of the printing process but the resin cleaned off the printer tray and build plate well. I filtered the excess back into the bottle and resealed it. I am going to try and light cure my IPA residue to clean this up further.Anything I didn’t like so much:❌ Nothing specific to this resin.Conclusion:✅ This resin gives great results and as someone relatively new to 3d printing I has happy to use the product recommended for the printer with my first forays. I would happily buy the resin again and perhaps try out some other colours as needed. I am just waiting for some cooler weather to keep on printing.Thanks for taking the time to read my review, I hope you found it helpful.

I've been using Anycubic Green for 2 bottles now, as well as Anycubic Skin and Grey, and they're all really good resins. I think the Grey is my favourite. The Green is the "control" with it churning out great prints when I was just starting with very little effort or knowledge on exposures or supporting/orienting miniatures properly. Now that I know what I'm doing, I find the Grey to be a better resin for minis...seems a bit less brittle, but generally the end result is about the same once it's all painted. The attached photo shows a huge 15cm high Demon King by Artisan Guild, printed in parts in Anycubic Green. Every piece came out perfectly. It glued together well. I use Gorilla Gel Superglue which works great.Everyone talks about the smell...well yeah...there is a smell, there's no getting around that other than building a fume cupboard or filter system. The Green was the worst for that, but it wasn't as bad as some people make out. Different people have different sensitivities to it, and for me it was ok. The Skin and the Grey are about the same...less smelly than the Green but still a smell to them. It shouldn't stop you from using them. Every resin has some smell to it, it's part of what they are. I have mine set up with some ducting that routes out through an open window, and an inline fan which pulls all the smell outside, and that gets rid of 95% of the problem. There's a Thingiverse design for an adaptor to connect the rear exhaust to the ducting tube. So it printed its own solution! :)

Runny but very good prints. Nice colour

TL;DR - it's fine if you're on a budget and it's fine for bulk-printing things you don't care too much about or big solid items (I'm making some slimes for my kid and figuring out new settings and programs for my 3D printer, so I bought this expecting to waste some on trial and error)I definitely second what some folks say about how much cleaning is required. At first I thought it was normal but having used a friend's resin for a run, this one's nuts. It's not the end of the world or anything, but cleanup is definitely a thing. A tip though - you can remove a lot of the excess resin by soaping it up and then wiping it off with a tissue or cloth, suds and all, THEN clean with alcohol, this will ease the burden on your cleaning product just make sure you wash your hands properly because this stuff burns like hell if you get it on more sensitive skin, worse than any other UV resin I've used.Aside from that, eh, it's fine. I've printed a tonne of stuff with no complaints, and some with issues that's probably more down to human error. It does indeed have some issues with sticking to the vat and it punishes you if you don't stay on top of cleaning but it's not terrible. I've not had any issues with how brittle it is, and I use it for minis, but mine are all still fairly fresh, so the review might change when they're older, lol.

Never had issues with this resin, it's quite sturdy and easy to get settings for, used it over the past 3 years and it's been perfect

Awesome as usual
