You may also have an issue with light bleeding -- it causes your edges to be fuzzy, since the UV is refracting a further distance throughout your resin.

Blue and purple tend to have the worst light bleeding (So I've heard). I'd give red or yellow a try (With the same settings as you currently have) to test that! Good luck! :)

Thanks! Yes, I was considering trying red or yellow as I hear they are easier to print. Then I'll have some data to compare.

cheers,
Michael

The red G+ is easier to print than the blue. This part used the same slice parameters and came out pretty nice looking. It was a little soft, is that normal until it is post treated with UV?

The 35mm diameter one came out very nice I think. Even the little supports are well defined. It looks great under a magnifier.
