The part has left marks on the bed, what can I do about it?
Leaving marks on the print bed is normal, and will not affect the quality of your next print.
How do I remove the raft from the model?
We recommend printing with dissimilar materials so that the part can be easily removed from its raft (e.g. PLA onto an ABS raft).
If the same material is used for both model and raft, wear safety gloves and use a craft knife to cut the excess raft away from the model. Then sand
the base of the model on a flat surface until the raft is suitably removed.
Is it safe to paint the part when it is finished?
Yes. You may find a primer level helps the paint stick, and smoothes out the parts slightly.
How can I smooth the part when it is finished?
You can sand all plastic parts. This will make the part smoother, but may change the aesthetic properties, due to micro-fatiguing mechanics e.g.
colour change.
Application of methyl ethyl ketone
precautions according to the manufacturer
If I have support material on my part how do I remove it?
Support material can be removed two ways:
Break-away
If the support material is the same as the build material, support material will need to be scraped away using a knife.
If using a knife, always wear leather gloves to prevent injury to hands.
Dissolvable support material
If the support material is PLA it can be disolved. For more detail on this, please refer to section
3D Touch
(MEK), either by dipping or lightly painting, will smooth an ABS (not PLA) layered surface. Appropriate safety
must be followed when using this chemical.
