Anycubic ABS-Like Resin V2 Grey — Durable, Low-Odor, and Water-Washable Resin
Anycubic ABS-Like Resin V2 Grey is a high-toughness photopolymer resin formulated to emulate the strength and resilience of ABS plastic, now in a clean and professional grey finish. Ideal for functional prototypes, brackets, enclosures, tools, and other parts that demand mechanical performance and ease of post-processing.
Key Features
- High Strength & Impact Resistance: Suitable for engineering applications, assemblies, and moving components.
- Water-Washable Convenience: Easily cleaned with water, alcohol, or ultrasonic cleaner — no need for harsh solvents.
- Precise & Stable: Low shrinkage and high dimensional accuracy make it suitable for tightly toleranced models.
- Grey Matte Finish: Clean, uniform appearance for prototyping or functional use.
- Low Odor: Comfortable for indoor use in ventilated spaces thanks to reduced VOCs.

Instructions for Use
- Before use: Shake well and allow any bubbles to settle. Clean the resin vat and platform.
- During printing: Pour resin into the vat and follow printer-specific settings for ABS-Like resin.
- After printing: Use tweezers, scrapers, and gloves. Rinse with water or alcohol. Ultrasonic cleaning is recommended.
- Post-processing: Remove supports, polish as needed, then cure under UV light or in a Wash & Cure station.
Precautions
- Store in a sealed container at 18–35°C, away from sunlight and humidity.
- Shake or stir gently if pigment settles. Do not preheat above 60°C.
- Do not leave models submerged in liquid for long periods.
- Always cure models after cleaning to maintain mechanical strength.
- UV curing recommendation:
- 5–10 mW/cm² LED or mercury light source, no more than 1 hour
- ~1 hour in strong natural sunlight
Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
- Is this resin good for load-bearing parts?
- Yes. It is engineered for durability, strength, and toughness under stress.
- Do I need special chemicals to clean it?
- No. The model can be cleaned using water, ethanol, or IPA. It’s water-washable.
- Can I use this resin for prototyping mechanical devices?
- Absolutely. The ABS-like properties make it great for hinges, joints, and technical enclosures.
- Is the grey color suitable for detail visibility?
- Yes. Grey provides excellent contrast for visible details, supports, and finishing work.
