for a resin that solidifies in 2 seconds).
Please note that resins with long exposure times also require longer exposure times during
post-processing (e.g. in the Curing and Washing Machine)!
Resins should be
stored in their original containers and properly sealed,
ideally in a dark room
with a stable temperature. If the original container is damaged, use a non-transparent plastic
bottle and the bundled funnel that came with the printer to pour the resin in it. Never store resin in
bottles from drinks - if you have to, label it clearly. Do not store resins in cold places as it may lead
to gelation of the resin.
