about

Resin Reliquary was born from the passion to spread the hobby of garage kits.A garage kit is a non assembled & unpainted model kit, typically made of resin, that requires the hobbyist to prepare, glue, & paint the parts themselves to complete the figure or model.Garage kits are usually 3rd party or fan made sculpts and not considered official merch. All characters, names, and other intellectual properties belong to their creators and official rights holders.

About Rappaport

Hey, I'm Rappa. I consider myself a hobbyist when it comes to 3D printing. I have been 3D printing for over 5 years, both FDM and SLA. My wife was kind enough to share her booth with me this past at a con to test if resin 3D printed garage kits would be something people would buy.Amazingly the interest was there and people were excited to see the models. My library of models grows every month and like every creator, theres never enough time to make and paint them all.All STL files used are sourced from the original creators and I have rights for selling the printed items.

Resin Printing

Printer: Elegoo Saturn 4 UltraI use a custom blend of resin for all my prints to improve overall strength and reduce brittleness. This helps ensure a longer lasting product that can also handle daily use.Once printed I use a multi-bath cleaning method to clean away excess uncured resin before giving them a final UV cure making them safe to handle.Prints may require minor cleanup of support material before being ready for paint.

Cautionary Warning

Modern SLA, DLP, and MSLA photopolymer resins consist of reactive acrylate monomers and oligomers that polymerize into solid polymers when exposed to <405 nm UV light, triggered by photoinitiators. Before that reaction is complete, these chemicals are hazardous to your skin, lungs, and the environment.We do our absolute best to make sure each resin printed model is properly rinsed, and cured in a 360° UV curing station. HOWEVER, it is not unheard of for uncured resin to hide in deep crevices and hollow cavities despite a print handlers due diligence and extra curing.Therefore, we recommend when prepping and painting your garage kit to you wear nitrile gloves with a minimum of 0.15mm thickness. This will protect your skin from contact with any trace amounts of uncured resin, and reactions from prolonged contact to acrylic paints. If any uncured resin does manage to get on your gloves you should clean the source of the resin, and change your gloves before continuing.

  • Wear gloves when prepping and painting your garage kit.

  • Use paint, and glues in well ventilated areas.

  • Make sure to take breaks for the sake of your vision and mobility.

NEVER POUR UNCURED RESIN OR ACRYLIC PAINT DOWN YOUR DRAINS.

If you have skin contact with uncured resin you should:

  • Wash immediately with soap & water for at lest 15 to 20min.

  • Repeat washing if skin still feels oily or sticky

  • Never use IPA, acetone or other solvents on skin as they increase penetration

  • Monitor the area for irritation and seek medical attention if needed.

Stay safe and kit responsibly friends!
