SunLu Red Wax Resin – 8.5K Resolution, 1 Litre

SunLu 3D filaments have become one of our popular choices for reliable everyday printing. Likewise, their 3D resin range has impressed beyond expectation. DLP & SLA printers are designed to transform UV-reactive resin like this SunLu standard resin into high-definition models using clever LCD masking or laser techniques. The power of light with 3D resin printers achieves mind-blowing detail and precision that FDM printing can’t dream of. But just like filaments, 3D resins have a variety of mixes that are perfected for their individual use-cases. This SunLu Red Wax Resin is designed for incredible detail, with 8.5K resolution accuracy!

Like mind-blowing wax sculptures, this 1L bottle of SunLu Red Wax Resin prints with a smooth matte finish that expertly captures every tiny detail of your 3D models. The careful mix boasts an 8.5K accuracy while maintaining the easy printing properties of standard resin. The feel is very similar to wax itself and also bends a bit more under pressure than other resins. SunLu Red Wax Resin is most similar to their standard resin range and make a fantastic option for those Makers who are more concerned with capturing every detail. While labelled red wax, this resin has a more earthy orange touch to it that can be a great neutral for painting.Tabletop gamers enjoy this Red Wax Resin for 3D printing miniatures on the bucketload thanks to its great detail.

Experienced Makers may notice the SunLu Resin seems runnier than we are used to seeing. Please be careful while pouring the resin and wear your safety gloves. This watery aspect is intentional by SunLu and results in a massive benefit when it comes to the cleaning process. When it’s time to wash your prints, you’ll find most of the excess resin has already drip-dried right off. Also, if any small spill spots hit your work mat, this resin is easier to wipe away due to its watery nature, making it one of the safer resins to use.
