3. Work Flow
- Printing
Simple - water washable resin is an affordable, easy-to-print, and clean general
application resin. It is specially designed for MSLA/LCD printers yet and is ideal for large format printers and new resin printer users.
To achieve optimal results with Simple V1 resin, you need to use the appropriate slicer profiles for your printer model and software. You can download the slicer profiles for Chitubox and Lychee slicers from this link: Profiles for Different Printers

- Clean
Here are some tips for cleaning your printed parts:
- Use a painter brush (or any brush made with hair) to remove excess resins on the printed part.
- Use 15% alcohol or IPA to clean (15% is preferred. Simple resin can also wash with water). Some form of methanol should work but make sure it does not contain acetone.
- Simple Resin is easily dissolved by water, so do not submerge the parts in alcohol or water for more than 20s. Clean it several times for a total of 2-3 minutes.
- After cleaning, remove alcohol as soon as possible with a hair dryer or air blower. For complex parts with lots of cavities, it may be a good idea to clean/dry multiple times.
- You can check by touching the dried surface of the part to see if it is still sticky. If the dried surface is still sticky, wash some more and dry again.
Tips:
- Make sure Simple Resin's model dries completely before post-curing, or the residual water may lead to cracks.
- Quickly drying print is essential for Simple - water washable resin. Do not leave it in the sun to dry. Use a hairdryer.
- How to get 15% alcohol: 1 part 90% alcohol + 5 part water.
- Post Curing
Here are some tips for post-curing your printed parts:
- Make sure the resin is completely cleaned off and there is no alcohol left (it needs to be dry) on the print before curing. Failure to dry before curing may lead to cracks.
- Simple reached its optimal strength when the printed part was post-cured with UV after cleaning. Use 395-405nm UV light and cure for about 1-2 minutes.
