Yeah I definitely can agree with the higher temps and need for better adhesion between layers with the PLA too. I used to print at 220C but for this filament I had to bump to 230C and it still had issues, I refused to go any higher for the sake of my hot end. I read through your previous post again and I too noticed that this PLA is a lot more flexible than what I am used to. I think this property is what's making some layers miss when printing, it's almost as though the tackiness of the filament is preventing better bonding. I can't really explain it, it just runs kinda thick I guess is how I can describe it, almost rubbery in feel.

As for the texture, yeah I'm used to the glossy filament too. I don't know why this batch was all bumpy lol.
