SUNLU 2000G ABS Like Resin for 3D Printer, 405nm UV Curing Photopolymer Rapid 3D Resin for 2K 4K 6K 8K LCD/DLP/SLA 3D Printers, Non-Brittle & High Precision & Low Shrinkage, 2KG, Dark Grey

I’m new to 3d printing, I have a Saturn 8k printer which has the build plate capacity for some larger scale table top miniature creatures and terrain. After a week of delight printing 28mm minis with standard resin I was eager to try printing some gloriously colossal dragons. I chose some models that were probably not the best for beginners, having lots of delicate features, very long and thin antennas, horns, whiskers, stuff like that. I was clumsily breaking all these details in post print clean up and assembly. Among other learning, I thought to try a more durable resin to see if I could be more successful. I had ordered a translucent standard resin marketed on Amazon under the name Jayo that I was pleased with, I had noticed on the resin bottle label it was licensed under Sunlu, what precisely that means, I can’t be certain, but I suspected it was simply that Jayo produces and sells resins based on Sunlu formulas. Having experienced good results with that product, when I saw the Sunlu ABS-like resin offered at such a low price for the 2000 ml size package, I felt it was worth giving it a try. I had never used another abs-like resin before so I can’t say it is or is not as good as the other brand that may cost 2 to 3x as much, but what I can tell you is that I am pleased with how this abs-like resin is performing in my application. It is a thicker viscosity than standard resin and following the results of two benchmark prints, I had to adjust my exposure time up 0.5 seconds, but that was all it took to start printing successful large scale models with details that can stand up to my fumbling! The new prints had much greater flex and durability, I dropped a 12 hour print on the hardwood floor after taking it out of the UV curing box and it survived without loosing horn or claw! The resin comes very well packaged, the jug is sealed in a bag, inside a fitted air bubble sleeve inside a cardboard box. The 2 liter jug is an elongate shape that is easy to hold while pouring and is stable when returning resin through a funnel. The resin came with some funnel filters also, a nice surprise. The Sunlu ABS-like resin seems more consistent from the bottle, like it stays well blended better, than the standard resin I have used. Even when I add more of this resin to a vat I have printed from a couple times, when I mix it with the silicone spatula it seems to combine more readily, at least from the visual perspective. I see the same fine details in my prints, it washes just as easily and does not have any more odor than the standard resin I have been using but it is noticeably more durable…and yet somehow actually costs less. I haven’t found anything to dislike about this resin and at the cost, I can’t see a reason not to use it for all my minis and enjoy a little extra klutz insurance. Maybe other ABS resins are better- I would not know, but for a hobby printer creating miniatures, this resin meets all my needs and expectations while the lower cost allows me to print more stuff than I could possibly paint in a lifetime. Try it, you’ll like it!

Good consistent resin. Not as strong or as flexible as some but a good overall material. I use it for testing and prototyping parts that will later be printed with more appropriate material or manufactured by other means.

This is a great all-around resin. It may not do everything perfectly, but does most things well. The pictures are of some of my prints, I have done very little to clean these up other than removing the supports and assembling the car (wheels were separate). This material is tuf. The ball can be thrown, bounced, and beaten. I have printed a couple and plan on trying a couple bats on some of them. I don't image it would struggle with a wiffle ball bat, but I doubt it will survive a metal or wood bat.Note: Thin pieces, such as the sword held by the biker punk, are flexible. I printed a bookmark for my sister (Sorry no pictures) and the part that went in the book was very thin and very flexible, but still seemed durable.I have only had one print failure, but I have failed to get that particular model to print with any resin.I have only had a 3D printer for a month or so at this point, I have tried a few resins. This one is the best and the price is right.

I make my own 3D models that I print and use to make jewelry and cosplay items for my etsy store. My typical go-to resin is Elegoo standard in gray, it has always performed very well for me and I'm not someone to often decide to try something else when what I have does what I need it to. Then I wanted to try out a white resin to make some buttons for kandi this past weekend and this was the brand that I could get the fastest (and I believe the cheapest too but I don't really remember).My printer is an Elegoo Saturn, models sliced in chituboxPro and chitubox basic. I could not find any information on print settings so I figured let's just try my typical ones, which are the base elegoo resin settings from their spreadsheet with only modifying the layer height from 0.05mm to 0.04mm, the bottom lift speed to 40mm/min and lifting speed to 50mm/min. The first batch of masks came out with some holes in cheeks which I attribute to a combination of needing a slightly longer exposure time and messing with the model a bit to adjust the thinner sections. Exposure time was brought up from 2.5s to 2.85s and this current batch came out great. My model is still very thin but the resin flexes a lot, my only concern with that is I have to be careful getting the supports off because the uncured model has a tendency to tear if I'm being rough with it. As for accuracy, the nominal width is 15mm and I've measured them at between 14.98-14.99mm so I'm pretty happy with that.It also seems to clean up pretty easily, though I do move my build plates after printing to allow as much resin to drip off as I can (sometimes overnight, or longer if I forget about them...) then do a quick initial rinse and light scrub in 99% IPA the a 4-5min run in clean IPA. Didn't need to run them through a 2nd wash cycle like I do with elegoo's abs-like 2.0 resin.My one and only gripe with it is that the white yellows pretty noticeably when curing. The above photo has an uncured model on the left(ish) and cured model on the right. Cured for 3 minutes in a Mercury XL cure box.Will definitely be trying out some more resins from Sunlu, I like what I've seen so far.

Solid as always, worked great. Even mixed it in with some leftover gray and it works fine mixed also. The scent is mild and easy to work with. The cleaning is the same as always, iso breaks it down as does mean green if you want a less flammable cleaner. The color is about on bar with milk, a nice clean white.Everything printed perfectly on my saturn 16k and had no failures, plan to keep buying it for general printing.
