Material-Details: Rusty-Resin Datasheet

Rusty Resin is a world exclusive material from Fabb-It.
Rusty Resin ideal wonderfully to displays items and jewelry manufacture. The rust on the surface can be set by us according to your wishes.
Your model is a result of the preparation of a 50% to 50% mixture of epoxy resin and fine metal dust.
By applying "Patina", your model will be rusted. In the "basic"finish, the model is again easy after it is rusty, sanded. The rust in the details of your model, only stays that way and you'll get this nice vintage look.

Please note:
This material is currently still in Beta!
It may be that , even if you follow any design guidelines, we can not produce your part also.
Be indulgent with us while we put this Material to try on our usual quality standards.

Typical usage

Rusty resin is intended to make the old components and valuable work.
It is particularly appropriate for the production of figures or enclosures in a vintage or steampunk look.

Technology and procedures

The production of Rusty Resin is a complicated 5-step procedure.
Your component is printed using the SLA technology. After unzip support creates a silicone mold from this model.
In this, a mixture of epoxy resin and metal powder is filled. Once your model is cured, it is freed from the mold and brushed.
After this step, a so-called patina is applied. A liquid which can rust the metal content within a few hours.
Your model is now once again brushed so that lags the rust only in the details of the model and then sealed to protect it from further rusting.
