ASA FAQ
ASA vs ABS — what's the difference?
ASA is essentially UV-stabilized ABS. Same heat resistance and strength, but ASA won't yellow or become brittle in sunlight. Choose ASA for anything that goes outdoors.
How long does ASA last outdoors?
ASA maintains its color and mechanical properties for years of outdoor exposure. It's the same material family used in automotive exterior trim.
Can ASA be acetone-smoothed?
Yes — like ABS, ASA can be vapor-smoothed with acetone for a glossy finish.
