Specialties
GlossyHigh-shine reflective surface; most common in PETG and ABS.
IPA SmoothablePVB can be smoothed with isopropyl alcohol (IPA) via vapor, spray, or brush to remove layer lines.
TransparentOptically clear. You can see fine details through the print. Very difficult to achieve true transparency with FDM due to layer lines.
Easy PrintFormulated to reduce warping and curling. Prints on unenclosed printers without lifting off the bed. Often PLA-based with additives that lower internal stresses. Great for large flat parts.
Low OdorEngineered to reduce harmful emissions and smells during printing. Safer for home or office use without industrial ventilation. Most common in ABS and ASA alternatives.
Low ShrinkagePart holds its exact shape over time. No warping, sagging, or unexpected size changes. Essential for precision parts, press-fits, and mechanisms under constant load.
