Hey all,

I am curious of the best way to clean your printed models from contact paper and pencil marks? I always steam clean my casts when leaving the lab but the resin ones don’t really clean well. L

Any tips?

Put them in the ultrasound with dishwash soap. The steam clean them. Same soap with a tooth brush or use some of that IPA with a tooth brush.

I have a bottle of Dawn next to my sink and a brush for this, even tried liquid soap and steam cleaning them. It gets them about 70% clean, but not perfectly clean. Haven't tried a ultrasonic yet. I've found iTero models clean up easier than printed models.

I'm finding Phrozen's 8K resin cleans up very nicely with the steamer, pretty much just as clean as a stone cast. I'm really enjoying printing. It's something different, getting the results in hand that you designed and created, is fun :)
