  • Wavelength: 405nm resin printer compatibility
  • Suggested layer height: 0.05mm as a general starting point for detailed resin prints
  • Bottom layers: 4–6 layers as a typical starting range
  • Normal exposure: Start from your printer profile; if supports break or delamination occurs, increase normal exposure by 1–2 seconds
  • Bottom exposure: If the print does not adhere to the build plate, re-level the printer and increase bottom exposure by 10–20 seconds at a time
  • Support density: For models with support failure or delamination, use stronger supports and keep support density above 75%
  • Cleaning: Wash printed parts with water until the surface is no longer sticky, but do not soak washable resin prints in water
  • Drying: Blow dry or fully dry the model after washing before secondary curing
  • Post-curing: Carry out secondary curing after washing and drying; the material property data is based on 30 minutes of UV post-curing at 10mW/cm²

MOLEGRID™ Washable Resin – 0.5kg / 1kg

MOLEGRID™ Washable is a 405nm photopolymer resin designed for LCD and DLP resin 3D printers. It uses a water-washable formulation, allowing printed models to be cleaned with water rather than relying on alcohol or isopropyl alcohol for the main wash stage. This helps simplify post-processing, reduce solvent handling, and make resin printing more manageable in everyday workshop, studio, classroom, and hobby environments.

This resin is suitable for users who need accurate, detailed prints with a cleaner post-processing workflow. It is well suited to model manufacturing, design validation, cultural peripherals, prototyping, education, hobby projects, crafts, and general model making. The material is aimed at both individual resin printer users and small professional teams who need repeatable results without overcomplicating the clean-up process.

MOLEGRID™ Washable is formulated with balanced strength and toughness, high precision, low odour, and reliable moulding behaviour. With a viscosity of 100–350 cps at 25°C and a density of 1.05–1.25g/cm³ at 25°C, it is designed to flow well during printing while still producing durable parts after washing and post-curing.

Benefits:

  • Water-washable formula reduces the need for isopropyl alcohol during post-processing
  • Low odour formulation for a more comfortable resin printing environment
  • High precision and easy moulding behaviour for detailed resin prints
  • Balanced strength and toughness for practical model handling after curing
  • Suitable for studios, individual makers, educators, and design validation workflows

Typical Applications:

MOLEGRID™ Washable is intended for resin printing jobs where detail, clean handling, and repeatable results matter. It is a practical choice for visual models, small prototypes, display parts, hobby models, and educational prints.

MOLEGRID™ Washable Resin: Water-Washable 405nm 3D Printer Resin (0.5kg / 1kg)

MOLEGRID™ Washable Resin, developed by Kexcelled, is a water-washable 405nm photopolymer resin for compatible LCD and DLP resin 3D printers. Its water-washable formula lets you clean uncured resin residue from finished prints with water instead of isopropyl alcohol (IPA) during the main washing stage.

Made for hobbyists, model makers, educators, designers and small workshops, MOLEGRID Washable is a practical resin for miniatures, display models and prototypes. Its combination of precision, balanced mechanical properties and relatively low viscosity suits a wide range of everyday resin printing projects.

Easy Cleaning, Detailed Prints and Everyday Versatility

MOLEGRID Washable is designed to make resin printing more convenient, particularly for users who regularly produce small models, prototypes and decorative objects. Its water-based cleaning process removes the need for IPA during the main wash stage, while the balanced formulation supports detailed LCD and DLP printing and practical handling after curing.

Water-Washable Cleaning Clean uncured resin residue using water rather than relying on IPA.
Detailed Model Printing Designed to reproduce small features and fine details for tabletop miniatures, visual models and prototypes.
Balanced Strength and Toughness Provides mechanical properties suitable for general model handling and display applications.
Low-Odour Formulation Designed to produce less noticeable odour, although appropriate ventilation remains essential.

Recommended Printing and Post-Processing Settings for Water-Washable Resin

MOLEGRID Washable is intended for compatible 405nm resin printers. Actual exposure and printing settings depend on the printer, UV light source, resin colour, layer height and surrounding temperature.

Setting Guidance
UV Wavelength 405nm
Printing Technology Compatible LCD and DLP resin 3D printers
Suggested Layer Height 0.05 mm as a starting point
Bottom Layers 4–6 as a starting range
Normal Exposure Use the manufacturer's printer-specific resin profile and calibrate exposure as required.
Bottom Exposure Use the printer manufacturer's recommended starting profile and check build plate levelling and adhesion.
Support Settings Adjust support strength, contact size and density for the geometry and weight of the model.
Cleaning Wash with water to remove uncured resin residue. Avoid prolonged soaking.
Drying Allow the printed model to dry completely before secondary UV curing.
Post-Curing Follow the manufacturer's UV curing instructions. Supplied property data references 30 minutes at 10 mW/cm², which is a test condition rather than a universally recommended curing cycle.

Important: Water-washable resin still requires appropriate handling and disposal. Do not pour resin-contaminated water into drains. Collect used wash water and follow the manufacturer's safety guidance and local waste disposal requirements.

Who Is MOLEGRID Washable Resin For?

  • Tabletop gamers and miniature painters who want fine detail on figures and terrain.
  • Hobbyists and makers who want to reduce their use of IPA when cleaning prints.
  • Designers and educators producing visual prototypes, classroom models and concept pieces.
  • Small workshops printing display models, craft items and short-run parts.

Frequently Asked Questions About MOLEGRID Washable Resin

What is MOLEGRID Washable Resin?

MOLEGRID Washable is a 405nm photopolymer resin from Kexcelled. It is designed for producing detailed resin 3D prints that can be cleaned using water rather than IPA during the main washing stage.

Do I need isopropyl alcohol to clean MOLEGRID Washable prints?

No. The resin has a water-washable formulation, allowing uncured resin residue to be removed with water. Used wash water must still be collected and disposed of responsibly.

Which 3D printers are compatible with MOLEGRID Washable?

MOLEGRID Washable is designed for compatible 405nm LCD and DLP resin 3D printers. Check the printer's supported wavelengths and the manufacturer's resin compatibility guidance before use.

Is MOLEGRID Washable suitable for miniatures and models?

Yes. The resin is intended for detailed printing applications such as display models, tabletop miniatures, figurines, craft projects and design prototypes.

Does water-washable resin still need UV curing?

Yes. Washing removes uncured resin from the printed surface, but the model still requires suitable secondary UV curing to achieve its intended finished properties.

Can I pour used resin washing water down the sink?

No. Water used to clean resin prints can contain uncured resin and must not be poured directly into household drains. Follow the manufacturer's safety data sheet and local waste disposal requirements.

What exposure settings should I use?

Exposure settings depend on the printer, resin colour, light source and chosen layer height. Start with an official compatible resin profile where available, then use an exposure calibration print to refine the settings.

Is water-washable resin environmentally friendly?

Water-washable resin can reduce reliance on IPA during post-processing, but this does not mean the resin is biodegradable, non-toxic or safe to release into the environment. Appropriate handling and waste disposal are still necessary.
