Bondo And Acetone To Smoothe 3D Prints

[@lgmattocks2892]

Just found your channel, I love your work!

[@boundlessperception1466]

Thabk you so much!!!

[@pennakira]

thank you for video, wet sand in a bucket is less messy.

[@boundlessperception1466]

I'll try that next time

[@fume5671]

did you ever make the comparison video ?

[@boundlessperception1466]

Not yet i still need to get that one done.

I have seen this done. I am wondering is the same method I use for resin prints would work. We use UV resin, resin powder (essentially sanded resin collected as dust), add those and mix till we get a nice past consistency. We can then apply that and and cure each layer we add, and keep adding and sanding. It works good for layer lines, seeming, and filling holes and gaps.

I have tried the resin powder method and honestly prefer this method instead.

That non catalyzed spot putty is so weak, I'd be worried about long term adhesion to a flexible substrate like plastic. Interesting idea though, I wonder how well it would work with regular 2 part bondo.

Where you got the technique from - www.youtube.com/@Darkwingdad Also, anyone trying this wear PPE, that includes a respirator rated for VOC's.

I actually looked back at my history and it was from here . kzbin.info/www/bejne/eanNooSCdt5oirc

[@Filament_of_the_Imagination]

what filament do you use for this? is this standard pla? i know you can vapor smooth abs and asa with acetone. this is so neat and im actually about to start some FNAF helmets myself. i figured pla wouldnt hold up for constant wearing due to temp warpage being outside. Thanks!

[@boundlessperception1466]

Hey! And yes i just use standard pla+ from either sunlu or amazon basics. I have had great success with both.

@@boundlessperception1466 wow awesome! i appreciate it! will be starting some big projects hopefully after all this holiday printing is done lol. i will def be trying this out
