Rod, SLA formed plastics are durable, but won't hold up as long as ABS. SLA is ideal for form & fit or dimensional verification processes, and is made of a photocurable resin that’s typically used for prototyping. It will yellow over time if not painted, but will maintain its form as a model for years. ABS is a production-quality material best suited for functional parts.

This is fantastic! What a great explanation of how the SLA process works!

How long do SLA-formed plastics last? Do they deteriorate faster than other plastics such as ABS?
