Where it shines

Budget PETG with good clarity for translucent prints.

Common use cases: outdoor, structural, transparent.

Where it falls short

Inconsistent batch-to-batch — buy a few rolls before committing to a project.

Print profile starting point

  • Nozzle temp: start at 240°C and tune ±5°C for surface finish.
  • Bed temp: 70°C is usually enough for adhesion; go up toward 90°C if first layer struggles.
  • Drying: 65°C for 4 hours before printing if the spool has been opened more than a few days.
