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 let 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.Printing and Drying Settings?
