Cleaning & polishing pastes

Choose your cleaning or polishing route

Use the routes below to navigate the collection by the type of surface treatment and finishing target required.

• Supports effective surface treatment and post-processing of printed parts.
• Helps improve smoothness, reduce minor marks and refine final surface appearance.
• Enhances visual quality and finishing consistency depending on paste and method.
• Complements professional manufacturing workflows where final aesthetics matter.

Typical use scenarios across the collection

This collection is suitable for professional post-processing workflows where surface finish and final visual presentation are important.

• Post-processing of printed parts: refining surface quality after manufacturing.
• Prototype finishing: improving appearance for evaluation, presentation or customer-facing reviews.
• Consumer-facing components: supporting more polished and visually consistent surfaces.
• Dental applications: improving the finish of parts where aesthetics and smoothness are relevant.
• Technical parts requiring improved finish: enhancing visual performance in industrial and research environments.

How to choose the right paste

Select the most suitable route according to whether the workflow prioritises stronger abrasive cleaning or a more polishing-oriented finish.

• Need more active surface cleaning plus abrasive refinement → choose Cleaning Paste CA1 Bio
• Need cleaning plus a more polishing-oriented finish → choose Cleaning Paste CP1 Bio

• Prioritise residue removal and stronger surface treatment → start with CA1 Bio
• Prioritise visual refinement and final presentation quality → start with CP1 Bio

Decision tree summary

Use this simplified logic before detailed finishing validation.

• Need cleaning with abrasive action → CA1 Bio
• Need cleaning with polishing action → CP1 Bio

Then validate the final route under the intended material, geometry, surface state and finishing method.

Cleaning paste with abrasive action

For workflows that require stronger surface cleaning, residue reduction and controlled abrasive refinement during post-processing.

Cleaning paste with polishing action

For workflows focused on surface refinement, visual quality improvement and a more polished final presentation.

A focused finishing platform rather than a broad consumables page

This collection is compact and clearly structured around two finishing logics: one route for stronger cleaning with abrasive action, and one route for cleaning with more polishing-oriented refinement.

• CA1 Bio covers the cleaning and abrasive route.
• CP1 Bio covers the cleaning and polishing route.
• Together, they support more controlled surface finishing depending on the appearance target.

The right paste depends on the surface objective, not only on the part

These pastes are most effective when the finishing goal is defined first: whether the priority is stronger cleaning and minor-mark reduction, or a more refined polished appearance.

In practice, the correct route is to choose the surface-treatment objective first, then validate the paste under the intended material, part geometry and finishing method.
