Creality Standard Resin – Grey 0.5 Litre

UV resin printing achieves a high level of precision and detail that FDM printing can only dream of. DLP printers use high resolution LCD displays to shape UV sensitive 3D resin into careful crisp models with mind-blowing detail. Creality 3D has contributed to the resin printing game with their wonderful Halot series 3D printers, and now a Creality Standard Resin range for us to enjoy smooth prints. Sometimes, FDM printing simply can’t offer the extreme detail that some projects or ideas need. Our Creality Standard Resin comes to the rescue with a high level of precision for smooth and tough prints.

This 0.5L bottle of Creality Standard Resin is a perfect blend of UV curable resin that features rapid curing and toughness. Although this resin is designed for general-purpose use, Creality has outdone themselves as always. We’ve found this Creality Standard Resin is top quality even amongst Maker favourites on the market. For its affordable price tag, there is surprising value with some delightful features offered by this beginner-friendly resin. Quick curing means an exposure time of only 2 to 3 seconds per layer and easy post-processing of your beautiful new models. Creality Standard Resin also bends before it breaks, making models with good toughness for a few simple functional applications as well.

When choosing between colours for DLP Printing, many people initially consider getting some fun colourful Photopolymers that really stand out with vibrant hues and shades. However, users who like to post-process prints by painting them or otherwise giving them a fresh new layer of extra colour on top will understand that Grey is typically the best choice to use, since grey can act as the perfect primer to ensure that whatever other colours you use really stand out once applied. Furthermore, grey does an excellent job at highlighting various features, corners and planes, and this makes it more enjoyable to post-process. It’s rather easy to imagine various colours being applied to each distinct detail of the print. The neutral colour also means that you won’t have the ever-common problem of colour bleed-through from the underlying material. So, if you love post-processing and painting all of your DLP Prints, or if you simply love the sombre and sleek style that grey offers for prints, then there is simply no other colour that can compare. 

Although Creality 3D have been working within the industry since 2014, their addition of the Creality CR-10 series is what really catapulted them to the front line of competition, as it offered substantially better quality compared to other 3D printers – while simultaneously reducing the cost and complexities of the machines.

The quality of Creality’s 3D Printers and accessories shows through in their market history, with the brand selling around 3000 printers in their first year on the market, followed by about 10,000 sales over the next year. Now, Creality easily sells around 30,000 or more 3D printers each year, with sales continuously rising as they bring out more models. These are impressive numbers when considering the fact that they entered the industry as unknown competitors, quickly rising through the ranks and now even competing with Wanhao and similar top brands.

If you are looking for excellent 3D Printers that offer affordability without compromising on quality, Creality 3D is certainly a brand that you should take note of. From the basic Creality Ender 2 all the way up to the large build volume Creality CR-10 S5, there are few other brands who are capable of offering such a refined package while still maintaining some of the most enticing prices in the industry.
