Product information & technical details
Description
ALT-Resins are a series of photopolymers for 3D printing. These resins are epoxy-like materials and can be used on all open-source LCD 3D printers in the range of 385 to 420 nm. The low odour and high printing speed make it ideal for 3D printing at home and in the office. 3D printed parts made of this material have crisp details. Printed parts can be easily sanded and painted. This resin can be used for rapid prototyping, miniatures, models, art resin use and many other applications. ALT resins have the following properties:
- Low viscosity
- Fast printing
- Odourless
- High precision
- User-friendly and VOC free
This resin has a Shore D hardness of 76, making it perfect for most projects. The low viscosity of 50-100 Pa.s facilitates cleaning with ethanol, bioethanol, IPA or other resin cleaning fluid.

Good budget resin
Rated with 4 out of 5 stars.
A good budget resin with some quirks that might give you some wrinkles before you get the settings right.

Decent, I guess
Rated with 2 out of 5 stars.
When receiving the resin I was quite impressed by how there was literally next to no smell. I first used another brand, which is the same brand as my printer, and it smelt quite bad.
I messaged ALT on their Facebook asking for the settings they recommend as I didn't find their website to be very clear (how ironic) but I wasn't given a response even though the message was viewed (that's my first complaint).
The resin clarity isn't bad, it goes a bit yellow but overall stays a decent transparency.
The print quality is good, no issues there.
Now, the curing of this resin seems to be it's largest downfall. Maybe it's just me, but when curing, the resin doesn't fully cure the outside of my models. You can still feel the resin not fully cured.
I did the same curing with my new resin which I bought for £22 on amazon (500g) and that cured fine, smooth and no stickiness to the surface.
Overall I'd say don't buy it unless you've got the curing station for a powerful, long cure. Though there are way better deals out there.
But this is a new resin, there is time to improve and I think with just a bit of work it could certainly stand it's own against competitors, but it'll definitely need something to stand out, especially at that price. If it did cost less I may of been more forgiving, but the fact you can buy resin for £10 less and get better quality overall, I think this resin needs more to make it worth the money.
I use an anycubic photon, and I cleaned with IPA and left to cure in the the sun and then under a 400nm UV light. Note: I left my prints to cure for about two days straight in the sun (when the weather was actually nice) and they were still slimy.
Wouldn't recommend, sorry.Was this rating helpful? (2) (6)

Impossible to get working prints
Rated with 2 out of 5 stars.
I bought this resin for my Elegoo Mars pro. From 7 prints only 2 were successfull (kind of). First I had almost successfull print, but it was full of weird "holes" and errors. The second print failed at half way and stopped printing. after raising the exposure to 13s per layer at 0.05mm layers and 100s for first 5 layers I started getting mostly working prints. Still some fails in same prints. Still getting weird holes and some parts won't randomly. The parts of the print that succeed look awesome though and I don't notice any smell at all from the resin. But if it doesn't print, the non smell doesn't help....

Great performing low odour resin
Rated with 5 out of 5 stars.
I used this resin in the violet shade, as my very first resin. Not far off being totally odorless which was great.
I printed in 50 micron layers with a 9 second layer cure and a 60 second base cure.
When the prints were finished I hand washed them in 100% IPA and then cured them under a small uv lamp for about 5 mins.
This worked out fantastic for me producing well printed and well cured miniatures in a rather nice colour and finish.
I was amazed that my fist print not just in this resin but ever! Went so well.
In my experience this resin was flawless. No issues at all.
