Railscale33d is a print-on-demand company because it limits the amount of stock we have to carry, thus meaning more space for state-of-the-art machinery to get the best details out of our models. Being a print-on-demand service does mean that the time to get a product ready and shipped out is a little longer than holding stock, as we have to remove supports and do quality checks.
Resin 3d printed products, can be on the delicate side, we try to produce all our products to withstand being dropped, but for things like vehicle mirrors it would always pay to be careful when handling them.
Another thing to look out for is placing your models in the sun for extended periods of time. The UV rays emitted from the sun are of a similar wavelength to those used to cure our 3d printed products, too much time in the sun can cause the print to go a brownish colour and become brittle.
If you find your models to be slightly tacky or sticky on the underneath of the models, this is due to imperfections in the UV curing process, if this tackiness bugs you then place your models in the sun for an hour or two and the stickiness should go away, if it doesn't then a good scrub with a tooth brush under running water should resolve these issues
Yes you can, but may I point out that when sanding resin printed parts it is extremely important to wear a mask/respirator as resin contains VOCs which can cause headaches and dizziness. Another precaution is the use of safety glasses when cutting resin parts, many a time have I fallen victim to stray pieces of resin ending up near my eye or even IN my eye. Safety first...
