Hall of Shame  

RE:

typical transparent petg with high temperatures which keeps it glossy and not matte (250C?) 

RE:

This is Prusa clear petg with the standard Prusa profile unmodified, the shine is partly poor lightning and a mobile camera, it is transparent clear the shine is just reflections from print defects. Today I will learn to divide 3 by 20, not 200. I honestly just had a laugh that the print came out as it did and was sitting there waiting for me, but certainly not what I expected. I would have expected something as silly as this to fail printing.

one detail that may affect the result, I feed the material from a dryer at 60c 13% humidity

Thank you.  The lighting in the photo makes it look like chrome/silver, and I'd have been looking for a roll of that!

If you have a tool changer you could probably embed a layer of dark gray or black inside a layer of clear and get something like chrome effect, that’s how you airbrush such effects.

I think we have all had one of these.

I was printing some Easter bunnies on my Ender-3 while I worked on my Core One, and occasionally their heads would explode and they would spray their little bunny friends with gray (rainbow gray) matter
