MY LORD. This stuff is super cool!I did not use this to coat 3D printed parts. I personally use it for cosplay purposes. I coated my worbla and some foam pieces in this and it gave it a beautiful shiny smooth coat! It is great as a primer for Worbla as Worbla tends to have a very bumpy texture and with this you only need 1 or 2 coats to get a super smooth surface! It cuts priming time in half if you are used to using classic methods like coating it in 6-8 layers of wood glue! This took around 3-4 hours to cure up. I let it sit overnight.
It is important to note that this has no flexibility once fully cured. I tested this on a piece of EVA foam and it just about shattered like glass when I warped the foam. I didn't expect it to NOT do this to be honest. It is resin. It did not flake off. It adheres to the foam. it just left a bunch of cracks all over the place! On pieces that will not bend at all, like weapons or shoulder pieces etc, I think this works well to give your foam pieces a smooth glossy finish. I had already primed my foam with several layers of plastidip before I decided to experiment. Plastidip + XTC-3D does work :).
This is super easy to use! If you have used any sort of resin you will already have an idea. You have your resin and hardener. The instructions will explain how to mix but this comes with a handy little mixing cup with measurement markings on the side. It also comes with a foam brush and Popsicle stick for stirring. You will need to have more of these items handy for more than one use! The foam brushes work really well for application. Smooth-On offers online tutorial videos on You-Tube for this specific product. That helped a ton! Have tin-foil on hand to make a tiny pool to sit the product in. This increases the time to apply because letting in sit in the cup will cure up to fast and it'll be hard to apply. You wouldn't get a smooth application in this case!
I'd imagine this would also work well as a nice shiny finish over paint! But I find It is SUPER shiny once cured. Almost TOO shiny. If this is not the look you want, you can just simply buff it down by sanding lightly over it. I still prefer a Shellac coating as my final step.
With the Prime shipping this was the best deal I could find on this product! I highly recommend this!

Product Description
Works as intended
I recently purchased this kit, and I couldn’t be happier with the results. This product is perfect for smoothing and finishing 3D prints, taking them from rough to a professional-grade finish with minimal effort. It arrived in perfect condition with all components included, and the instructions were straightforward and easy to follow.The resin itself applies smoothly with the included foam brush, and it cures to a hard, glossy finish that brings out the detail in each print. I noticed that it also fills in small layer lines, making post-processing much easier. Once cured, it provides a durable, protective coating that not only enhances the appearance but also adds strength to the print.Another bonus is that the resin doesn’t yellow over time, so prints keep their fresh, vibrant look. The kit provides a generous amount of product, making it excellent value for the price. I highly recommend this product to anyone looking to take their 3D printed projects to the next level with a high-quality, reliable coating solution!
