I'm more annoyed by the state of my plastic lid, to be honest. No amount of IPA has ever succeeded in making it clean. 😂
Luckily my lid is currently mostly clean barring a few smudges from incidents
I usually change my gloves before I touch it so it gets fresh gloves every time
Edit: Also be careful with IPA on acrylic as it will damage it. I learned that with not 3D printing related stuff but long story short it makes it brittle and can make it foggy.
Thanks for letting me know. :) Gladly (i guess), I gave up quickly and kept it dirty, so I've never seen any damage (presuming it can be seen). With my second resin printer, I similarly learned to really really be cautious! I now have two pairs of gloves, one for before washing the print, and one for after. It sort of does the trick, but the desk on which the printers sit is still a mess (a bit less so since I use a silicon cover on top of it and make sure to manipulate things only in that area).
Too late now, but a stick on handle from Amazon on the top solves this.
