Aesthetic Finishes

The Silver and Brass resins provide a 'Gilded Glow' or 'Argent Aura' effect. This is ideal for printing jewelry, coins, or decorative parts that need a metallic look.

Fast Processing

These photopolymers are designed for fast curing under 405nm light. This reduces the time each layer takes to solidify on an LCD screen.

Standard Compatibility

While the finish is specialized, the resin works with standard LCD 3D printers. It follows the common 405nm wavelength used by most desktop resin machines.

Large Volume Printing

The 1000g bottles provide enough material for large projects or multiple small batches. The resin is formulated to maintain its metallic shine throughout the bottle.

First-hand

Notes from buyers

Michael 4.6

The Gilded Glow resin gives my prints a very realistic brass look right off the build plate.

Andrew 5.0

I was impressed by how fast the Silver MetalShift resin cured on my LCD printer.

John 4.5

The metallic shine is consistent across the entire 1000g bottle, which is great for my larger models.
