Smooth Your 3D Prints FAST with UV Resin!

This short tutorial from VanOaksProps demonstrates using UV resin as a faster, easier alternative to air-dry spot putty for smoothing layer lines on FDM 3D prints. The technique is demonstrated on a Boba Fett helmet and involves applying UV resin to fill surface imperfections, curing it quickly under a UV light, then sanding smooth. The result is a significantly cleaner surface with less effort than traditional methods.
