So all in all there is no one trick pony to this game of 3d printed models and separator. So I ended up finding someone online who has a ortho dept and using a off brand separator for digital models and I watched him pop these retainers with acrylic off the digital like they were nothing it was kind of mind boggling to me since I cannot find any consistent cure all for this. So I went and looked up the brand and it specifically says no use on 3d models and even goes as far as saying if you are a dental lab and thats why you call us we will not sell you it due to patent 9,717,568. So I'm like what the heck and look into a bit and find this https://www.brynmawrortholab.com/patent-9717568/ which goes into detail a company made a patent for the idea of applying separator to a digital model? Does anyone know about this? Its a interesting read so get your tin hat out for this lol
