ELEGOO 5KG Photopolymer Resin Detergent, 3D Printer Resin Cleaner Compatible with Most 3D Printing Resins

This product cleaned my resin prints very well. I like the bulk volume. Washed and came out clean. The only issue is after 24 hours of drying there was still some wet /" greasy" looking spots on it. I use someone's suggestion of a hair dryer and it finished the drying of it pretty flawlessly meaning it wasn't greasy just still a little wet. I think this product takes a little bit longer to evaporate than normal alcohol. So if you are impatient or need something done quicker, just put a little bit of hot air to it and you should be good to go!

Works as intended

I would give this review five stars, but it does have a slight odor. Nothing against this product, it is a huge step up from 90+ proof rubbing alcohol. I bought this as a replacement to using alcohol to clean my resin prints. This was a good buy and it lasts a long time. I poured all of this into my cleaning vate, drop in my print for a few minutes rinse, remove wash off with water and onto my curing station. Saves me so much time and much better on my wife's sensitive nose

We're obviously all looking for an alternative to ipa. Ipa smells bad, is difficult to clean/filter used resin out of, so it's mostly disposable, and when you do need to dispose of it, it's difficult to do even that. But this product is not the alternative we've been waiting for.It's oily, and doesn't dry, even after soap and water rinse. Amazon says it's non toxic, but the label on the bottle basically says don't let it touch your skin under any circumstances, so yeah, definitely toxic. And I don't know how to dispose of it because I don't even know what's in it.Does it clean resin off of parts? Yes. Quite well actually. But it replaced the resin with oil. Which then has to be cleaned too. And even after soaking the parts in a soapy hot water bath, sloshing the parts back and forth in the water, then rinsing with fresh water, then allowing several hours to dry... There's still oily spots the water didn't clean off. (I'm assuming something about oil and water not mixing). I literally ran to the store, bought more ipa, dumped this detergent crap back into its original bottle, poured the ipa in my washing station and cleaned my parts in ipa.So, ipa is what works. There is not alternative, at least not one that I've found. But this product is terrible. Sure, it technically gets the resin off the parts. But adds soooooo much additional work to cleaning parts. And after everything, the only way I could get a completely clean part, was pour ipa in my washing station like I should have done in the first place. So, waste of $40 and about an hour of my life.Edit: After dealing with the aftermath of the clean up from using this detergent I came across some more issues with it that I thought I'd share.Some of the detergent dropped onto the knob on my washing station, and after having time to dry, it literally glued the knob in place. I had to disassemble the machine to break the parts apart to clean them with, wait for it... ipa.Also, the smell, while initially it seems milder than the smell from ipa, and it is somewhat, it is an awful smell, and it doesn't go away. Ipa evaporates, so eventually the smell leaves your shop. This stuff is an oil that doesn't evaporate nearly as fast, so that smell lingers much much longer. Also, I have an air purifier sitting next to my 3d printer station that displays the 2.5pm measurements in the air (particulate matter smaller than 2.5 microns), and it reads 150 to 250 parts per cubic meter while the lid is off the washing station with the detergent in it. Which is roughly the same as ipa. So it's no better for your lungs either. For reference, a safe 2.5pm reading is about 15 or less. 250 is toxic and considered dangerous. If you do decide to ignore my warnings here and buy this detergent anyway, please ignore their claim that it's non-toxic and wear a mask.

For me, I like using this much more than ipa. The smell is much nicer, and I feel safer using it. I just make sure to dunk my models in water afterwards to remove any remaining detergent. The detergent does a great job, as I don't ever see any resin come off in the water dip.

I purchased this after viewing a few YouTube videos. Since this was about half the price of a gallon of 99% IPA I felt it was worth giving a try. One of the YouTube reviews also stated it can be used to clean your printer and tools.It did a good job of cleaning the resin off a clear ABS like resin print. As others have stated it is oily feeling for a while but given enough time to dry that seems to go away. As for cleaning tools it seems fine for metal.However, DO NOT let this stuff touch anything that is plastic. As soon as I tried to wipe some resin off my clear lid I knew that was a huge mistake. The lid became sticky like the detergent was eating into the plastic cover. I was able to neutralize it was a huge amount of IPA but my lid is no longer semitransparent. Elegoo does NOT sell replacement lids for their printers. So once you destroy the lid you are done.Since I have used IPA to clean the lid in the past I didn’t think this detergent designed by the manufacturer of the printer would be caustic to the plastic parts on the printer. This is boggling as it ships in a plastic jug. So it is safe for some plastics, but not the transparent plastic of the printer. I am now also concerned about the longevity of my Elegoo wash station. Without any instructions and minimal labeling is it even safe to keep in the wash station?It is a shame that a product designed to clean resin can’t be used to clean up resin. For this reason alone I will be going back to 99% IPA and keep an eye open for replacement lid for a Mars 4 Ultra. Seems like a missed marketing opportunity for Elegoo. They sell a product that destroys the lid of your printer so they could make money selling replacement lids. It is a shame as this could be a 5 star product if it didn’t eat plastic on the printer.

Love it so far no odor and seems to clean the parts really well.

Good product high recommended
