Try a plastic blade to scrape it. I have a similar issue that occurs on my other printer a d the only way I've found to remove resin from a screen is with a blade, but a metal one will scratch up the screen.

Daniel Kelly thanks, where would I get one of those?

Jim Appleby honestly not taking the piss when i say this......print one? lol

I have the same issue, I´m very carefull too, I don´t know how it can happend xD

The plastic sucks. I tried to clean it with ipa and now it's ruined... Don't clean it with ipa ?

Angelus Mew Ellis as a ”noob” I would have to rely on an existing stl...have not mastered creativity yet however I do not imagine it could be that difficult ?

that looks like it will do the job, its for car ice so might need resizing but should be ok :)

Angelus Mew Ellis thanks!

you bodged it you'll need to buy a new printer.
(or replacement panels if you want to save money.)

Just leave it, they're only windows

The only reason I could thing to replace them would be so you could see how your print is doing but even that's not a good enough reason to care

If it bugs you that much, a local (or online) plastics supplier should be able to laser-cut you a replacement sheet of acrylic?

Nathan Madche exactly! If you desperately need to see your print halfway through, just open the door?

Razor blade scraper may do it

It blocks more light getting in that way!

They're so cheap it's not even worth trying to print it. Just search Amazon for plastic blade scraper. I use them for removing prints off the build plate and they're great for it!

Angelus Mew Ellis the thing I'm talking about is like a plastic razor blade rather than an ice scraper. Come to think it it'll probably do an awesome Job of getting ice off too!

Masking tape the plastic cover and spray the window black, then spray varnish if you want to make it Sci fi and shiny. Also blocks light properly. Don't trust the little yellow plastic windows if your print is sitting finished for a long time

Do not use acetone... I did and it makes the window cloudy.

Anyone has idea where to get photon s spare wondows... mine are ruined aswell...

Buy a new sheet at your local hardware store, cut it to size and drill the holes, paint it black, install.

Remove window, soak in ipa

Use Ipa and a razor blade to carefully clean it. It will take a while, take your time. Do a little everyday.

As long as it still blocks light there's no real issue

I'd just leave it. If you find it unsightly, cover it over with some stickers or contact paper.

Cody Ray Pierce wont work on the S. Windows are snap in custom made. Totally different than the OG.

I can draw die lines and upload them this evening for laser cutting. I could make them for anybody who would like feel free to pm me. I dont have the colored acrylic so i’d need some time to get it. Just pay the cost of acrylic and shipping.

Use a razor blade

Paint it black or live with your mistake

If it hardened, the plastic cover is not very effective at stopping the UV.

Had the same thing happen, I removed the plexiglass and soke it in denatured alcohol over night then a hard scrub. Came off

Leave it. It looks like it came from the Fallout world.

My question is why wouldn't you wipe it off immediately?

Because I was an idiot and as I was getting my first print out is when I first noticed but was more interested in following a process for cleaning and curing it. Only decided to wipe it clean when it was way too late. oh well if this is the worst....

I managed to recover mine by sanding with 1500 grit paper and then polishing with Kaol. The resin is too harsh for some plastic and plexiglass. It is not a matter of cleaning, unfortunately.

razor blade

Ben Knipper You hot a laser? I’ve got a couple projects I wanted to do in acrylic...how thick can you cut?

Scott Pavlich yep, My bigger one can cut 1.0” thickness

your model puked inside the printer. Covid-19?

Ben Knipper This would be 3/16 or 1/4 max

Scott Pavlich yea thats no problem.

Yes, I think I tried to give it too much in the Vat first time around. Just glad that no real harm done; just embarrassed

Jim Appleby We have all done it

That looks like you didn't get the diaper on quick enough

I had to use goof off to clean mine.

Order replacement glass from Anycubic.

Not to be rude but how did you make that much of a mess??

I think I overfilled the vat; also it became worse as I attempted many different methods to clean it. In short as a noob I was a "dumbass"! Good news is I am much better now; what a difference a week can make

Jim Appleby this hobby is a constant learning process.

if it makes you feel better the first time I printed something with the photon i dropped the plate corner down onto the LCD and fep sheet and resin started leaking all over my new printer bc I have the fine motor skills of an infant.

fantastic feedback and support from the various forums is what makes this hobby great!

Vincent Clayton I cannot even create a ticket. I am referred to their support page; it assumes I purchased from Amazon. I purchased from the Anycubic-official seller on eBay and without an Amazon invoice number my request can not be submitted. Glad I don't have a real issue!

Jim Appleby sorry ?

Take the screen out and get as much off with IPA as possible, don't use a blade to scrape it off or you will scratch the plastic. Use rubbing compound first over the whole screen to get all the resin off, it will now be cloudy. Use t-cut to get rid of it being cloudy then use polish and make it shiny again.
