Do I have to sand or is there some magic I’m not aware of?

Here is an alternative Piped link(s): https://piped.video/watch?v=-pbi6CkZxgA

Piped is a privacy-respecting open-source alternative frontend to YouTube.

I’m open-source, check me out at GitHub.

Thanks!

Everything I found said that cured resin is inert. I did see that there are biocompatible resins out there but they seem to be mostly used in dental applications. I’ll keep searching though.

@Piecemakers3Dprints @CaptainFlintlockFinn as a one time chemist I’d agree that there is a real possibility some trace materials in the resin causing some harm in prolonged contact. The resin may be set but could potentially leach some of the other materials such as unreacted ingredients, catalysts etc. In the same way that cheap jewellery can release alloying metals that cause irritation. A dermatologically safe varnish seems a sensible call.

10-4. I hear you.

For labs sells a biocompatible resin for medical use. I’ll probably end up switching to that.
