   - __Cleaning is mandatory__ - Printers must be emptied of leftover resin after every use. Build plates must also be cleaned with alcohol after each use. Use a filter funnel to return all unused resin from the resin vat to its original container. Use a **plastic** scraper to genty squeegee resin from the vat film. Isopropyl alcohol should be used to clean the build platform and the resin vat. Proper cleaning procedure is covered during certification training.   - __Cleaning is mandatory__ - Printers must be emptied of leftover resin after every use.
