Review on πŸ”‹ High-Strength PETG Filament by Polymaker, 1.75mm by Kendrick Breezy

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Glass-smooth layer lines are not possible, but some curvature occurs

Flows smoothly like water glass; sticks well to itself and adheres well to the bed. With a low layer height, e.g. B. 0.1 or less, you can get perfectly smooth prints with almost no visible layers. Very impressed with that. Suppose this is due to incredible quality control of width and material properties. I've also read that you can smooth out this material with acetone, but haven't tried it yet. I still have a serious problem with buckling up and getting out of bed. (See photo) Given the level of accuracy I need in my robot parts, this doesn't cut it and the cost of each mistake is high. I am currently unable to print some of the models due to the top corners of the models being lifted causing the layers to shift. (Probably have to turn the print and use support, ug.) I tried lowering the temp to 190C and using PVA glue but none of them helped. If I have a minute I will contact the manufacturer to see if they can forward me. I'm stuck using margins to even out the moment. The color is not light, there is white in your face. It looks more natural than, say, Inland White. If you want a cartoony bright white page, this isn't it. However, I personally prefer this shade. The packaging is incredible and should be the industry standard. Definitely a step up. The spool itself is transparent so you can see what you have left. In addition, there is a two-layer scale directly on the spool with measurements in grams and meters. An ingenious and much needed improvement. It's nice to just look around and see how much thread you have left.

Pros
  • Consumables for 3D printing
Cons
  • No automatic
