    Waterproofing PLA / ABS parts

    Is there an easy way to waterproof things i print in PLA or ABS. By this I mean make it so that water is absolutely 100% unpermiable. Normally there are little cracks in my prints and I can see water is getting through.

    Print with more shells, 2-3 shells get's my stuff completely watertight.
