Elegoo Resin Detergent - A Smelly Alternative

[AVKamfher]

I have an Elegoo Satrun 3 Ultra that I use mainly for D&D and Warhammer 40K minis, though recently have been using it for smaller accent parts for the ODST outfit.

I have been eyeballing this 5000g of liquid for a while and decided to give it a shot. They shipped it out in the traditional way. Slapping a label on the box and calling it good.

First impressions are it smells. Like Elmers paste cranked up to 11 on a hot day smelly, a respirator is recommended as well as heavy gloves. There is a warring for skin and eye irritation, use with caution.

So far I have cleaned up a few D&D minis and it gets them extremely clean. Also worth saying the detergent is still really clear even when put into a resin stained tank.

Do you think its cleaning better then ISO? Have you looked into how your suppose to dispose of it?

It feels like it does clean better and the fact that it has done 3 cleanings and still looks clear gives me hope.

As for disposal, I cannot seem to find any information on how to do that so when the time comes I plan on putting it out in the sun for a good while and document how long it takes to evaporate.

Personally I'll stick with alcohol. You can't get cheaper than buy once and keep re-using it.
I go straight from settlement jars back to the wash bucket.
The pristine alcohol out of the distiller then goes to the rinse bucket.

I mean you're going to have some small amount of loss from washing, brush, drying etc. But its next to nothing in the greater scope of how much is used/reused/reused/reused {...}
