How to Prepare and Use BlueCast X-WAX
Before Printing:
- Warm the resin bottle to 30–40°C for 5 minutes
- Shake well for 1 minute to ensure even mixing
- Use PFA film (≤127μm) or ACF film for tilt-vat printers
- Maintain ambient temperature between 25°C and 35°C
- Use a heated resin tank or chamber if available
Post-Processing (No UV Required):
- Wash in IPA alcohol for 5 minutes
- Blow dry with compressed air
- Second IPA wash for 3 minutes
- Final air dry
- Let prints rest for 15–20 minutes before treeing
Tip: For stubborn residue, use ultrasonic cleaning at 40°C with IPA for 10 minutes.
Suggested Casting Investments
Best casting results were achieved with:
Plasticast, Optima Prestige, SRS Classic
- Ratio: 37:100 (water:plaster)
X-Vest v2
- Ratio: 38:100
- Let flask rest for 2 hours before burnout
Burnout Cycles
Recommended Cycle:
- Ramp: 0°C → 150°C (Hold 2 hrs)
- Ramp: 150°C → 700°C (Hold 3 hrs)
- Cool to casting temp
Standard Cycle:
- Ramp: 0°C → 150°C (Hold 2 hrs)
- Ramp: 150°C → 450°C (Hold 2 hrs)
- Ramp: 450°C → 700°C (Hold 3 hrs)
- Cool to casting temp
Fast Cycle:
