Choosing the right Resin
With resin-based SLA 3D printing you can create objects with smoother surfaces, finer details and more intricate structures than FDM 3D printing. In the same way choosing the right filament is essential for successful FDM 3D printing, choosing the right resin is a key step in the resin printing process. There are many different styles available, and this particular product from Photocentric 3D produces firm parts with just a little give under high stress. Perfect for load bearing components that have to stay strong, but not break under pressure. Extremely stiff parts can become brittle and snap under pressure, where parts made with this resin will stay strong, but flex just slightly to stop from snapping.

Questions
What is the most appropriate soluble support to use with this filament? Would I be correct thinking that HIPS is the best given its higher extrusion temperature (vs PLA)? Thanks in advance - want to ensure I get the right support material when ordering.
I am following the manufacturers guidelines for temp and speed and running into warping that pulls away from the build plate. The printer in inside an enclosure to prevent drafts the build plate is PEI, the printer is a Prusa i3 Mk 3S with a hardened nozzle. Any ideas?
Try a sheet of machinable Garolite LE from McMaster-Carr, which works better for nylon than PEI. E.g., look at this: https://www.mcmaster.com/8474K101 - you could cut and attach it to your build surface. Or you can buy a garolite build surface matched to your printer from Matterhackers.
