glass with abs.
If, after painting, you wipe the surface with a lint free cloth with a little acetone on it - you can smooth it out quite a lot.
The bits of abs that stick to the print are a pain though.
I'm looking for something that abs (and I suppose pla) sticks to when the surface is hot - but lets the abs go when it's cold.
Thought kapton tape was supposed to do it - but as far s I can see nothing sticks to it particularly well.
Hairspray - do they do fragrance free hairspray ?
The idea of my workshop smelling like a womans beauty salon, does not appeal !
