Thank you for that demonstration. As someone who never Resin printed before, I now have something to go on. I appreciate it.

Great video! Both of the toughness style resin really impressed me. I'm going to have to go with sunlu for the premix could convenience.

I can definitely see the tan resin has sharper details

I believe that’s largely just the way that light plays on that color of resin. Beige or Tan resin or dark grey resins usually just look better to the eye right after printing. Prime them and the details are probably nearly identical.

I used SUNLU ABS-like for over a year, but was running into failures with larger sections of my prints - even at 2.5 sec per layer - on my Mono X 6Ks. I switched it up to Elegoo ABS-like 3.0 and those issues have disappeared and I was able to drop the layer exposure back to 2.0 sec per layer and the Elegoo has a much lower odor factor. Also, the 2 Kg Elegoo bottles are around $31 on Amazon at the moment making it very cost effective, as well.

Thank you for a good comparison.

My go to is sunlu toughness. Prices fluctuate but I usually buy a few bottles when they hit around ~$20/kg but it's usually either only in the white or black. Definitely recommend for printing miniatures.

Awesome video as always. I was recently pointed at Ministry of Resin and I'm thinking of trying it to replace brittle resin that is elegoo abs-like Grey

I have printed a lot of minis using the Sunlu ABS like and have been happy with the results. I did notice I had to dial in my curing times as if I went over it got kind of brittle, but I am a rookie with this stuff.

Sunlu Tough is my go-to from now on for miniature painting. Much better than ABS-like in my testing and still retains a ton of detail.

In what ways is it much better? I'm about to order some Sunlu resin but was aiming for the abs like

Have you tried Elegoo ABS like 3.0?

Think you had a bad batch of the Fast from Siraya Tech because it's definitely not that breakable on my end. Though I do use the Navy Gray. Siraya Fast Navy is actually pretty strong and it gets even better with Tenacious.

There are a couple of new resins from Siraya that may be worth checking out. Siraya Fast Tough Grey and Tenacious Easy Grey. These seem like pre-mixed Fast + Tenacious in terms of properties. Not sure what the percentages are. Haven't seen any reviews for either of them yet.

Yes, the version I tested is Siraya Tech Fast ABS-Like Tough Grey. I was disappointed because someone asked me to test it because they like it.

Ah...gotcha....I couldn't see the label clearly in the video. Also the price you gave for it was for the standard Fast Grey. The Fast Tough Grey is more expensive at $45.99.

Iv always seen adding tenacious to the Siraya fast

Was odor a factor for any of these? I'm especially interested in Sunlu Toughness.

All of the resins have some amount of odor with them, although to be honest, I wasn't really checking the smell. I'm not that sensitive to resin odor so don't use that as a factor for purchasing but I know some people are.

Could you test something please. Cure sunlu abs like for 5 minutes and see if it is more durable after. I heard from someone that his prints get/stay really flexible after he cured for 5 minutes. I also saw a video of this and it was like he described. I dont have the abs like atm sadly to try it

Yes, definitely adding more cure time stiffens the resin. I've also found that after time (maybe a few weeks) the resin stiffens up on its own too.

@@gaminggeek241 nah he said curing for 5 mins is getting the print more flexible. so the opposite of what to expect.

Right now I am printing 50:50 Sunlu Abs Like/Sunlu toughness. I'm quite happy with that but I havent tested other ratios

Siraya tech fast is for high detail fast curing prints, it is not a "tough" resin at all, nor is it meant to be. That said, any of these take actual abuse to just break, if you even put in minimal effort to care about how you treat your mini's these are fine.

Sunlu ABS Like was so good for the price when it launched. It was like 17 bucks a Liter. It's still really good for the price, and unless you're beating the crap out of your minis, it's perfect.

and these are all post cured?

Sunlu water washable abs like is the only answer.
