Thank you!!!
There's definitely a few areas where the lines are still present. The Mud is covering the wordt of it!
Ive got a few i ideas but this being the forst one i wanted to do minimal first and see the results. So this is just sanded with 180 grit and smoothed over a little bit with some finer stuff. 3 layers of ace hardware primer.
On the next there will be none. I plan on applying armor texture of the entire thing.
Main reason I didn't on this is it all PLA+ research says it will not like my armor texture mixture.
331 is PETG it supposed to be able stand up to the mixture. We will see!! I think ill end up using both types for different parts in the future.
I also think some high build primer would do the trick?? What do you like to do to make them dissappear? What filament you prefer?
