ELEGOO ABS-Like 3D Printer Resin 3.0, 405nm UV-Curing Photopolymer Resin for Mars Saturn Jupiter MSLA DLP LCD 3D Printing with Strength and Toughness, High Precision, Low Viscosity, Grey 2000g

I've been using the ELEGOO ABS-Like Resin 3.0 for several weeks now, and it has quickly become my favorite resin for functional prints and miniatures. I'm running it on my Saturn and Mars printers, and the results have been consistently excellent.What I love:Exceptional Strength & Durability: This resin really lives up to the "ABS-like" name. It has just the right balance of toughness and flexibility. No more brittle prints that snap under light pressure—perfect for parts that need to handle a bit of stress.Great Print Quality: The detail this resin captures is fantastic. Surface finish is smooth, and sharp edges are crisp. Ideal for mechanical parts or highly detailed minis.Low Viscosity & Easy Cleanup: Flows well, settles fast, and doesn’t leave sticky residue in the vat. Cleaning prints is easier compared to older resin formulas I've used.Consistent Curing: Cures reliably under 405nm UV with predictable exposure times. No warping or unexpected curing issues.Value for Money: The 2000g bottle lasts a long time, and considering the quality, it’s an excellent deal.A small heads-up:The smell is still there (as with any resin), so proper ventilation is a must. But it’s definitely less pungent than cheaper alternatives.Overall, if you’re looking for a tough, reliable resin that delivers high-quality results without the brittleness of standard resins, this is it. ELEGOO nailed it with this 3.0 version. Highly recommended!

Great resin that works well on third party printers. I am using it with my Anycubic Photon M3 Max. It is a thinner resin so it flows easier and works in a wider temperature range than other resins that I have tried. The prints that it produce are sharp and accurate, and I have had little to no bed adhesion issues. I generally use 3.0 seconds per layer. It also has the same threading as the Anycubic bottles so it works in the Anycubic resin pumps.

Purchased this to print skulls for my students to be able to study in-class. The prints produced from this resin have been durable (i.e., standing up to use by students) and the detail captured in the prints is great! Would caution that as with most resins used, that proper precations are taken in terms of fumes/particles to avoid any health concerns.

I probably go through one of these every 2 weeks when I have an active D&D campaign, printing out masses of minis.During breaks, if you leave the resin in your tank, it will somewhat separate into a dark grey and light grey, but after 2 minutes of gentle mixing it'll be fine. ... leave it in for a month, and you'll get some white solids; they will actually reintegrate, but you'll want to pour as much of everything back into the bottle and give it a long healthy shake. Prints made with this seem to come out fine, so it can't be that bad, right? The stuff in the bottle stays shelf-stable for at least a month or two after opening, maybe longer - it doesn't last long around my house so I can't say.Elegoo stopped including foam inserts and a small soft brush in each box, but that's probably for the best. The container is already very rugged so the intended-for-the-garbage foam inserts were unnecessary, and after you have one or two cleanup brushes, you really don't need too many more.Great stuff though, I should probably make a subscription.

Everything is as good as all of the other brands. I do like the cheaper prices because it seems to be as good quality as the others.

I had a similar experience as one other reviewer. Used half a liter trying to get this stuff to work. Printing a few objects at once and the majority would come apart leaving the base on the platform and a blob on the FET. If using supports, they would usually come apart soon after the raft, often in the conical bases of the supports. I tried increasing print time to over 50% beyond optimum and eventually went to heavy supports. The only thing that worked is crazy long exposures.Switched to another resin using the same stl, thought what the heck and went with fine supports. Perfect prints every time.I can't really print any slower or with less detail so I'm done with this stuff.Edit:Since posting this, I saw a report that adding 0.5 sec rest time before lift could ameliorate the delamination with this resin. I don't think I tried that.Personally I would still buy Elegoo resin, just not this one.Edit v2:Elegoo has been very good in responding about this problem. I now suspect that the delamination is specific to the Black resin. The black is "blacker" than any I have used before and more opacity could cause the issues I'm seeing.Because Elegoo has been so supportive and I think this only affects one color I've upgraded from 2 to 3 stars.Further Update:I got an opportunity to try a "fix" and it worked! No more delamination when I added 10% transparent resin, set light off delay to 0.5 sec, and used 10 transition layers with a somewhat longer than optimal exposure time. I think the main thing was the transparent resin diluting the pigment a bit. The parts are still maximally black. I can't see any difference in prints before and after dilution but the UV may penetrate better.Now that I got a chance to see how it performs, I kinda like it, I would give it a 5 if the settings were easier to come by and it didn't take mixing in another resin. Considering that it may be a batch issue and is probably only the black color, I'm bumping my rating again to a 4.

Another awesome resin by Elegoo. Used on Elegoo Mars 5 Ultra. Not messy at all, barely any smell or stickiness. Adheres very nicely to the base plate and prints come out looking exceptional. Black really pops in the details.
