    Question What do you like to print on for finish and adhesion?

    So we would like to know what people prefer to print on: tape, glue or specialist boards?

    We created a poll on our Google+ page, we had to do it somewhere where we could try and pool all the results.

    If you don't want to vote in the poll that is obviously ok but please leave your comments on your preferred choice and why.

    For ABS: Thin ABS/acetone slurry on kapston sheet provides great sticking power and glass-smooth finish.

    Also, painter's tape, hair spray, etc., etc., etc.
