Scratch Resistant Resin

Scratch resistant resin from Siraya Tech produces 3D prints with surfaces that hold up to friction, handling, and everyday use. This collection includes wear-resistant formulations that use composite materials and custom pigments to create parts that don't grind to powder at joints or contact points.

Whether you're printing articulated figures, mechanical parts, or display models that get touched often, scratch resistant resin keeps surfaces looking clean. These 405nm UV resins work with LCD and DLP printers from Elegoo, Anycubic, Phrozen, and more.

Surfaces That Stay Smooth Under Use

• Composite materials create a tough, non-brittle surface that resists scratching and scuffing.
• Moving joints and contact points don't generate powder or wear marks like standard resin.
• Great for articulated figures, action figures, and mechanical models with moving parts.
• Maintains fine surface detail and high resolution even with the added durability.

Tough Without Being Brittle

• ABS-like toughness means parts survive drops and impacts without shattering.
• Good fluidity for faster printing and a higher success rate out of the vat.
• Easy to clean, reducing time between prints.
• Available in solid, opaque finishes including matte white that photographs well.

Works With Your Printer Right Away

• Optimized for 405nm LCD and DLP printers with no special setup required.
• Print setting profiles available for Elegoo, Anycubic, Phrozen, Creality, and Peopoly printers.
• Can be mixed with other Siraya Tech resins to adjust toughness, flexibility, or color.

Frequently Asked Questions on Scratch Resistant Resin

What makes resin scratch resistant?

Scratch resistance comes from the formulation's hardness and surface toughness. Higher Shore D hardness ratings and composite additives create a harder surface that resists indentation and abrasion. Custom pigments and materials also reduce the tendency to powder or scuff at contact points.

Is scratch resistant resin good for miniatures?

Yes. It's especially useful for articulated figures and models with joints that move against each other. Standard resins tend to grind and produce white powder at friction points. Scratch resistant formulations maintain clean joint surfaces through repeated posing and handling.

Does scratch resistant resin lose detail?

No. Quality scratch resistant resins maintain the same high resolution as standard model resins. Fine detail, sharp edges, and smooth surfaces are all achievable. The added surface toughness doesn't come at the cost of print accuracy.

Can scratch resistant resin be painted?

Yes. After washing and curing, the surface accepts acrylic paints and primers well. Light sanding improves paint adhesion on very smooth surfaces. The scratch resistant surface also helps protect paint jobs from handling wear.
