PolySmooth™
How can I smooth PolySmooth™? PolySmooth™ can be smoothed with IPA using 2 methods:1) Using the Polysher™ (less labor intensive, safer, more consistent, and reliable results)2) Spraying IPA with a spray bottle using our Polishing KitFor 2) we recommend spraying a thin coat of IPA on the surface of your PolySmooth™ model and letting it dry for 15-20min and cycle these 2 steps until the desired smoothness.CAUTION: Proceed in a well-ventilated area to avoid inhaling IPA vapors. Is PolySmooth™ a PLA-based material? No, although PolySmooth™ prints with similar settings as PLA, PolySmooth™ is PVB based.PVB is more hygroscopic than PLA so it requires a dry box however it can be post-processed very easily with IPA for a smoother surface finish.
