Printing clear objects....What's the Secret?

LT1PonchoOGR Forum Member SUPPORTING MEMBERDIGITAL SUBSCRIBER

So I have been learning the 3D printing game for about 6 months now. I have jsut begun trying to print some clear objects....light bezels, lamp globes, etc. I am having a hard time getting truly clear prints. I am using an Elegoo Mars 4 9k. I am using Anycubic clear resin. It is water washable. If I wash then cure, I get whitening of the resin prints. If I don't wash and then cure, I get a yellowing of the resin prints. What am I missing? What is the secret?

You may be over curing the parts. You may also try using just heat or a combination of UV and heat.
