Finishing 3D Prints
Recommended Supplies for Finishing 3D Prints
- Adhesives (we use Gorilla Glue 2-Part Epoxy and Gorila Glue Expanding Glue)
- Sand paper (80, 120, 400, 600 and 1200 grit)
- Sanding cushions (Resin only - we use The Sandpaper Man)
- Gap filler (we use Selleys Spakfilla)
- Primer Filler (we use Omega High Build Primer)
- Gloss Top Coat (for resin prints we use Omega Acrylic Laquer)
- Spray paints (we use a mix of Liquitex, IronLak and Montana)
- Acrylic paints (we use Liquitex Heavy Body and La Sonja)
- Airbrush paint medium (we use Liquitex)
.
We also recommend attaching some sand paper from each grit to wooden paint stirrers to make sanding sticks to help you get in those tight spaces on more complex models!

- PS.MINI - 2SPRAY Mini Gravity Spray Gun
