petg printing as easy as pla? perfect for petg beginners.

I mainly print pla and petg and there has always been a noticeable difference in how much less of a hassle it is to print pla over petg so I expected the same from Jayo so I turned my glass from textured to put a layer of Elmers glue on the smooth side and the first thing that struck me was that the temperature needed to print is 220-250, so much lower than what I'm used to. I usually print at 245 but with Jayo Black Petg 230 and 70 it was perfect, it had a very slight stretch at 235 but it stopped when I went down to 230. The biggest difference I noticed was the first layer. I put the glue stick in the middle of the bed because I always had to do it, but I noticed when he made the main line where there was no glue stick, it glued and acted like a pla. I always have to watch the initial prints with Petg because I have to clear the main line, but with Jayo it held up well even on clean smooth glass with all of that. This is by far the easiest petg filament I've used when switching from Pla to Petg and Jayo is $8 cheaper than what I usually use so I'm switching to Jayo for my Petg. then I have to try pla, maybe I have to switch to it too.

Pros
  • Delivery was very quick
Cons
  • Crumpled
