Is IPA a Good Solvent for Resin Removal?

Last updated:

IPA is a common chemical solvent often used to clean and degrease industrial machinery, but is IPA a good solvent for resin removal? The answer is yes. If you are using 3D or SLA printers in your line of work, you know that these printers must be cleaned after use to remove any leftover resin or build up. Resin build up and spills, if not properly cleaned and removed, can cause damage or impact the functionality of your 3D printer, so it is important that these machines are cleaned with a chemical solvent as part of regular maintenance. IPA is recommended for resin removal on 3D printers for many reasons. IPA is affordable, effective, and will not damage your 3D printing equipment.

Why is IPA a Good Solvent for Resin Removal?

  • Cost Effective – Compared to similar degreasing chemicals, IPA is not only less harsh, but it is more affordable when compared to IPA alternatives.
  • Safe to Use – IPA has a high evaporation rate and low water content which prevents equipment from being damaged by moisture or pooling.
  • Powerful Degreaser – IPA is great for degreasing and degumming, and can easily cut through and dissolve leftover resin build up, leaving behind a clean surface.
