Has anyone had issues before with Elegoo Gray resin?
I have for the most part stuck with the transparent green resins in the past, I've used Anycubic, Elegoo, and Monoprice with no issues. I decided to pick up a bottle of gray this week and it has been a fucking mess.
I tried printing with the settings on the bottle with no luck but I know those can't be fully relied on. So I did an exposure test and my best result was around 18 seconds which is more than double what the bottle said. So the same 5-hour print I did with Elegoo green last week was 10 hours with gray.
The worst part is the leftover residue it is leaving on everything. I don't know how clearly you can see in these pictures but my tub was clear on Friday and my spatula was solid black, and this picture of my plate was after dunking and scraping it with a new bottle of IPA. On top of that, everything this shit touches is extremely sticky even after multiple IPA baths and hot water rinses. I even tried a soapy water rinse and it is still sticky. The biggest thing was that I got a single drop of IPA bath on one of our tables, it is stained and I have tried everything short of sanding it to get it out with no luck.
On the plus side, my print came out fine, but it doesn't seem to be worth the hassle. I am returning what I bought and getting green again, but did I just get a bad batch or something or is this a known problem with Elegoo Gray? Has anyone has a similar experience?
