Polypropylene has been known to string out so damn thing I can't even see it. I get the crap on me all the time. It's so thin it actually snags on my fingerprint ridges.
Annoying as all hell, can't see it to pull it off, and when you do manage to snag it - it just sticks to the other hand. Happens to me a couple times a week.
On some prints,it's worse than others,but a few passes with a heat gun or small blow torch gets rid of most of it.
agree with all of you it can get so thin it amazes me. it would we great to make a wig out of LOL and use for halloween for spider webs.
make i should try the the fisherman print with the thing pla string ;)
According to me it is spider webs.It is thin stuff to look
