$42Alpha Model Resin
Finely detailed parts
### Alpha Model Resin
Alpha Model Resin is a supremely detailed resin with a deep, fully matte, neutral surface that captures every detail, down to the finest crevices and textures\.
Create detailed scale models, life\-like sculptures, and richly textured miniatures with thin features that flex instead of snapping, so finished models survive painting, transport, and drops\.
The Alpha Resin Family uses low\-odor components and post\-processed parts meet safety requirements for long\-term skin contact\. Alpha Resins are the first 3D printing materials certified for UL GREENGUARD Gold, when printed on Form Studio 1 and using VOC Extractor\.
Alpha Model Resin is only supported on the Form Studio 1\.
