Is 3D resin a plastic?

3D resin car models are not made of traditional plastic materials. Instead, they are made using a type of resin called photopolymer resin. This resin is a liquid polymer that hardens when exposed to ultraviolet (UV) light.

Resin models have become popular in the automotive modeling community due to their high level of detail and accuracy. They are typically created using a process called stereolithography (SLA), where a 3D printer uses a UV laser to selectively cure layers of resin, building up the model layer by layer.

Resin models offer a wide range of advantages over traditional plastic models, including finer details, smoother surfaces, and more intricate designs. However, they are generally more fragile and require careful handling.
