 ===== About ===== ===== About =====
  
-Some FormLabs Resins used in the Form 2 3D printer can benefit from post process curing. Each resin has a specific hardening curve which can be found within the reference material which will indicate the ideal time and temperature to be set on the FormCure. +After your FormLabs print has gone through the FormWash, the resin should be cured in the FormCure, a UV curing chamber. Each resin has a specific hardening curve that can be found within the reference material. This will help you indicate the ideal time and temperature to be set on the FormCure.
