Xtreme Gray, has a high impact resistance, which makes it ideal for functional testing. Xtreme Gray produces accurate, crisp and clean detail, which is perfect for prototypes, fit, form or presentation models.
These SL parts can be sanded, primed, painted and used as final show pieces. This durable material also works well when creating snap fits or assemblies that require tougher than normal loads.
Although it’s extremely durable for testing, it’s also easy to sand prime and paint. Due to its thicker viscosity, it takes longer to build and may command a slightly higher price per part than other SL resins.
