[3D Scan Application] A Comprehensive Comparison of 4 Scanning Spray Powders (Developers) for Quick Understanding!
When performing 3D scanning, if the object to be scanned has materials that affect light reflection, such as black fabric, transparent glass, or reflective metal surfaces, it is common to spray a scanning spray powder (developer) onto its surface to ensure smooth scanning. So, how do you choose the right scanning spray powder? We've compiled the key features of each and compared their performance to help you decide!
AESUB White 3D Scanning Spray Powder (developer) is composed of non-toxic ingredients and does not contain titanium dioxide (TiO2) particles, eliminating inhalation hazards and making it safe to use. After scanning, simply wipe the object clean with a soft brush or cloth for easy cleanup.

AESUB White 3D Scanning Spray Powder has an average layer thickness of 7µm. When sprayed onto transparent, reflective, or complexly detailed objects, it distributes evenly and thinly across the surface, ensuring smooth and stable 3D scanning.
Features:
1. Layer thickness: 7µm
2. Does not contain titanium dioxide particles (TiO2)
3. Even spray powder distribution
4. Stable and long-lasting adherence to objects
5. Easily washable with water
6. Affordable price

MAGNAFLUX SKD-S2 3D Scanning Spray Powder is a halogen-free developer. Its quick-drying property creates an opaque white surface, producing a clear contrast on the object. This is effective for smooth 3D scanning and stable results, and after the work is complete, it can be rinsed off with ordinary water.

MAGNAFLUX SKD-S2 meets the requirements for aerospace and nuclear industries and is halogen-free.
Features:
1. Halogen-free ingredients
2. Non-fluorescent
3. Easily washable with water
4. Meets NDT non-destructive testing standards
5. Quick-drying
Suitable for:
1. Industrial parts
2. Welding test objects
3. Models, artworks, sculptures
4. Waterproof products

MAGNAFLUX WCP-2 3D Scanning Spray Powder is a bright white, opaque NDT developer. It complies with ISO 9934 and BS5044 certification standards. Not only can it be used in 3D scanning processes to make reverse engineering smoother and more stable, but in magnetic particle inspection, it also creates a high-contrast white background, improving detection probability and sensitivity.
WCP-2 spray powder can be used with all types of magnetic particles, whether dry or wet. After quick and even application, it effectively reduces glare and reflection on an opaque white background, even when using non-fluorescent or colored magnetic particles, clearly displaying results. This enhances the speed of 3D scanning and inspection.

Features:
1. Can be used for magnetic particle inspection
2. Effectively reduces glare and reflection
3. Requires cleaning with alcohol
4. Meets NDT non-destructive testing standards
5. Quick-drying
Suitable for:
1. Objects requiring magnetic particles
2. Transparent glass
3. Metal products
4. Black (dark-colored) sample models
5. Objects that can come into contact with alcohol

For objects that cannot be cleaned with water, such as fabrics, paper, metal products, and electronic components like circuit boards, using spray powders that require water rinsing or wiping with a damp cloth for 3D scanning may lead to damage from moisture absorption or friction during the final cleaning process. Additionally, spray powder getting into crevices can make it impossible to restore components to their original state.
AESUB Blue 3D Scanning Spray Powder (developer) has a layer thickness of 5-15µm and self-vanishes. Developed and verified by 3D scanning experts, it contains no pigments and will not damage the appearance of objects. Since no cleaning is required after scanning, it effectively reduces working time and costs. At the same time, it ensures that objects can be restored to their original state and used as normal after work is completed! (See also: Self-vanishing, no cleaning required? Suitable for all scanning materials!))

Features:
1. Self-vanishes within 4 hours (can be accelerated by heating and airflow)
2. No cleaning required
3. Even spray powder distribution
4. No pigments
5. Suitable for complex structures, hard-to-clean parts, and parts with crevices
5. Suitable for complex structures, hard-to-clean parts, and parts with crevices
Suitable for:
1. Fabric, paper products
2. Metal products
3. Electronic devices (phones, circuit boards, SLR cameras)
4. Automotive and aerospace components (headlights, tires, safety helmets)
5. Models with complex structures and many crevices
6. Plants
