Anycubic Water-Wash ABS-Like Resin 3.0 Clear 1 kg
Anycubic Water-Wash ABS-Like Resin 3.0 Clear 1 kg is a clear water-washable ABS-like photopolymer resin for LCD, MSLA and DLP resin 3D printers using 365-405 nm light-curing technology. It combines easy water cleaning, ABS-like toughness, high detail reproduction, low shrinkage, good fluidity and minimal odor.
The Clear color is suitable for models where a transparent or light-transmitting effect is required: decorative parts, housings, prototypes, mockups, light elements, display models and technical prints. Final clarity depends on wall thickness, model orientation, washing quality, sanding, polishing, clear coating and UV post-curing.
Important: this is the Clear version of Water-Wash ABS-Like Resin 3.0, not the specialized Anycubic High Clear Resin. Choose High Clear Resin when maximum optical transparency is the main goal; choose this Clear Water-Wash ABS-Like Resin 3.0 when water cleaning and ABS-like toughness are also important.
β¨ Key advantages
- π§ Water-washable formula — printed models can be cleaned with water, simplifying post-processing and reducing IPA consumption.
- π§± ABS-like toughness — suitable for parts that need better bending resistance, load resistance and crack resistance.
- βοΈ High precision — reproduces fine details, textures, edges, holes and fitting areas.
- π Low shrinkage 4-5% — helps maintain model geometry and reduce deformation.
- π Good fluidity — the resin flows back to the print area more quickly after platform lifting.
- π Clear color — suitable for visual prototypes, decorative parts, housings and models with a light-transmitting effect.
- π§ Functional-use oriented — suitable for housings, clips, prototypes, fixtures and small load-bearing parts.
- π¬οΈ Minimal odor — a more comfortable printing experience compared with many standard photopolymer resins.
- β Wide compatibility — suitable for LCD/MSLA/DLP printers using 365-405 nm or 405 nm resin.

β FAQs
Can this resin be cleaned with water?
Yes. Anycubic Water-Wash ABS-Like Resin 3.0 can be cleaned with water. Resin-contaminated water should be settled, exposed to UV or sunlight, and cured residues should be disposed of as solid plastic waste.
Does the Clear version have a HEX color?
The official product page does not specify a HEX code for Clear. It is better to list it as Clear without a numeric HEX value.
Is this the same as Anycubic High Clear Resin?
No. This is the Clear version of Water-Wash ABS-Like Resin 3.0. It is designed for water cleaning, ABS-like toughness and a clear visual effect. High Clear Resin is a separate specialized resin family for high transparency.
How can I get a clearer surface?
Better clarity depends on proper model orientation, careful washing, full drying, controlled UV post-curing, sanding, polishing or applying a clear coat.
Is IPA washing required?
Not necessarily. The resin can be washed with water, but 95% IPA may be useful for faster and deeper cleaning of complex models.
Can it be used for functional parts?
Yes. After correct printing and UV post-curing, it is suitable for housings, prototypes, clips, fixtures and small load-bearing components.
