Clear
NOTE: Partially cures with yellow tint. Appears to be fully cured when completely when yellow is gone, but this can be many passes in UV nail light if parts are thick. Sun may be best

Printed test cube; base was a bit soft, probably needs 60 seconds or more for base layers
Rest of print was also slightly soft, but hardened quickly under the UV lamp, probably should increase time to 10 seconds

Printed cube has similar results to blue first try; longer times needed for more fully cured parts; required times are probably close to blue

Printed test parts; hard to remove from platform, didn't seem to stick to FEP film as there's no real audible click when platform retracts between layers
Parts were still yellowish in UV nail lamp after (x2) 30 minute cycles; more cycles required to turn parts completely clear
