The Elegoo Mercury XS 2-in-1 wash and cure station combines a dedicated wash module and a UV curing module in a compact, single-unit workflow tool for post-processing resin 3D prints. The kit is intended for hobbyists and professional users working with resin printers and brings washing, final curing and targeted spot curing into one solution. Designed for straightforward operation, the Mercury XS simplifies removal of uncured resin, provides even UV exposure and includes safety features such as an anti-UV cover and automatic shutoff when the cover is opened.
Advantages
The integrated design eliminates the need to buy separate washing and curing devices while preserving full functionality for both stages of post-processing. A sealed wash tank with large capacity supports cleaning of multiple or larger prints in one cycle. The curing chamber features adjustable L-shaped lights, a 360° rotating platform, LEDs under the platform and a Fresnel lens that together deliver uniform 405 nm UV irradiation across complex geometries. User controls are simplified to a knob and button with adjustable time up to 30 minutes, and the transparent cover blocks the majority of UV radiation and triggers automatic shutoff for safer operation.
Suitable for
- Post-processing resin prints from desktop MSLA/DLP printers
- Cleaning and curing miniatures, prototypes and functional parts
- Workflows requiring both tank washing and full 360° UV curing in a compact setup
- Users who need a sealed wash tank for larger models or batch cleaning

How to use
Place the printed part into the wash basket, fill the sealed wash tank with an appropriate solvent according to material and safety guidelines, then start the wash cycle using the knob and button. After washing and drying, transfer the part to the curing chamber, set the required curing time (up to 30 minutes) and start the curing cycle. Use the 360° rotating platform and adjustable L-shaped lights to ensure the model receives uniform UV exposure; use the handheld UV lamp for interior cavities or post-assembly touch-ups. The device will automatically stop UV emission if the cover is opened during operation.
Usage recommendations
Operate the Mercury XS in a well-ventilated area and use gloves and eye protection when handling uncured resin or solvents. Follow the resin manufacturer’s post-processing guidance for recommended wash solvents and cure times. For large printers or tall prints, check the maximum cleaning height and remove printer platforms (e.g., Saturn 4, Jupiter series) before washing if required. Regularly clean the wash tank and replace solvent as needed to maintain effective cleaning performance.
