Form Wash V2 Settings
Parts should be washed for 5 minutes in IPA or ethyl alcohol with a concentration of 91% or higher. Immediately afterwards, dry the part thoroughly using compressed or forced air. Spray or rinse parts with fresh IPA or ethyl alcohol, then dry again using compressed or forced air.
Settings: Form Wash | Form Wash L
Form Cure V2 Settings
It is highly recommended to cure parts as this will significantly reduce potential defects during casting. Cure for 10 minutes without heat in Form Cure or an equivalent third-party curing machine. Cure for 3 minutes without heat in Form Cure V2.
