Keysplint soft users, I have a question.

Straight off the plate, clean with air? Or spritz with alcohol (no bath), then air off excess ipa?

Two alcohol baths after there removed from build plate. First bath is takes off most of the residual resin. Second bath is with clean IPA that should remove all remaining resin. Then after second bath airblow with compressed air.

For bath one I use an ultrasonic for 180 seconds. Then for second bath I get the best result with small plastic bow of clean IPA and a denture brush and brush like no there is no tomorrow.

You could use an other 120 seconds of ultrasonic with clean IPA but the denture brush and old fashion elbow grease does a far better job.

Right, that's the process I've used since the beginning but keep coming up with cloudy splints from the ultragloss tray. Trying to minimize polishing since each UG tray is 25% more than a universal. Saw on here some don't do 2 baths like I do (neither are ultrasonic) to minimize IPA exposure and retain gloss, but curious how safe that is

1) Manipulate them as little as possible. We only hold them from the supports until its cured. (Considering you are printing vertically with 0 supports on the occlusion.
2) For this material we change our alcohol CONSTANTLY. As soon as you see your alcohol cloudy, it will start to make your nightguards cloudy. We change it almost after every print/batch.

For other comments, we aim for around 2mm+ minimum. We have tried 1.5 but they tend to break in the posterior area.

Even at 2mm we tend to see a lot of cracks in the posterior area.

I’m not using Asiga but am still able to get them cloudy free. Could be cure box/ settings. I also Pumic lightly and use a high shine compound. It is dedicated to Glidewell Erkodent products but found for flexible and Keysoft it works great.
