FAQ
Can I use the Finish Kit as a complete post-processing solution?
The Finish Kit is designed for manual rinsing. While it is excellent for cleaning parts, we recommend pairing it with the Form Wash (V2) if you want to automate the agitation and timed soaking process.
Why are there two rinse buckets?
The recommended workflow is to use the first bucket to remove the majority of the liquid resin (the "dirty" wash) and the second bucket for a final, cleaner rinse. This significantly extends the life of your IPA and ensures a cleaner final part.
How should I maintain the rinse buckets?
Keep the lids snapped shut when not in use to prevent solvent evaporation. Replace the solvent once it becomes too saturated with resin (typically when parts no longer look clean or when the wash efficiency drops).
