Full Color Sandstone

See full material information for Full Color Sandstone here.

Look and Feel

Produced on Z-Corp printers, it is perfect for figurines, life-like models, avatars, and other products that lend themselves to colorful, high-quality printing. Models are created by printing binder material and colored ink layer-by-layer into a bed of gypsum-based powder. After printing, the models are finished with a cyanoacrylate (super glue) sealant to ensure durability and vivid colors. The final product is a hard, brittle material that works great for figurines and visual models, but isn't well suited to functional parts or daily handing. Models should be handled carefully, and not exposed to water as it will cause fading.

When printing in this material, some variation in color shade is unavoidable, especially with difficult-to-produce colors such as browns and skin tones. We optimize each print run to make individual models look great, may see differences in color when looking at multiple prints of the same model side by side.

Handling and Care

This material is not watertight, is not foodsafe, is not recyclable, and is not dishwasher safe. Full color sandstone is heatproof to 60℃ / 140℉ degrees. Higher temperatures may significantly change material properties.
