Yes, I’m sure. Only warming up the bottle a little to help mix the settled wax when shaking.

What do you think so far? The SolusWax police looks better than the SolusCast ring.

The coins in the above do not look great accept fthe Z10 print looks pretty good.

Are you casting any of these?

Has anyone discussed curing SolusWax?

Regarding cleaning and curing Soluswax:

Clean in 91% ipa alcohol by agitating the prints for about 10 seconds. Recommend having two containers of alcohol. Dirty one and clean one. Agitate for 10 seconds in each.

Dry the prints using compressed air.

NO CURING IS NECESSARY for SolusWax, however about 20-30 minutes under uv lights can be beneficial if you plan on shipping the prints, would like to get rid of the tackiness or have delicate detail (such as filigree). Curing can make the resin stronger so that those fine details don't get damaged by the investment.

DON'T USE WATER for cleaning or for curing.

SolusWax is shinier/waxier looking. Make sure you clean well in alcohol. Then use compressed air to dry.
