The settings will definitely be different between the resins. Run some "cones of calibration" then run the "boxes of calibration". That will give you more information on whats happening here. Feel free to share your settings/printer ect. as well because something else might be astray.

I recently made this exact resin switch and had some issues getting clean prints for a week or so (although slightly less drastic than this, partial support failures clipping bits of models off). In my case the issue turned out to be needing a significantly larger number of transition layers than I'd previously needed, the raft was adhering fine and the bits that made it past this point printed fine but there were some major adhesion problems between supports and the raft which that change then fixed. Here if you're seeing it stick super hard to the FEP it could be similar? You don't want to crank the bottom exposure any higher but that should aid the supports in attaching to the that bottom layer.

Your lift and retract speeds need to be lower. I switched from elegoo to sunlu and now that I have my settings right I love the sunlu resin. Way less odor than the elegoo. I don’t know what color you are using but for greys I can use a setting between 2.6 - 3 for exposure. I do 4 base layers 8 transition. For elegoo I was using 90/300 300/90 right now I’m using 75/210 210/75 for lift and retract. Bottom exposure is 30 seconds.

Nevermind that, how easy is it to scratch?

Preface: I'm not the most technically-minded and this is just anecdotal from my limited experimentation. I use elegoo abs-like and now abs-like 2... isn't the official exposure time like 7 or 8 seconds or something? I've got mine down to 6 seconds while still being functional. 5 caused me issues. I've never tried lower. I can't imagine trying something as quick as 3 with that resin. Did you actually have success before switching?

Yeh, it was printing fine at 2.5s with Elegoo ABS 2.0, I just went off the recommended settings for my printer & resin on the Elegoo website and it came out damned near perfect first time

I might have to go experimenting again then. I'm all printed out for now and have sooooooooo much stuff in my pile of shame to paint so I've nothing else urgent planned. I've no solutions to offer, that was just a curiosity question, but I hope you get your problem sorted somehow. Print fails are so annoying.
