What is the best smoothing method for Prusament PETG?

Hi, I read that since different companies use different ingredients, PETG from different companies react to smoothing agents differently. For those PETG of Prusament brand, what is the best way to smooth the printed objects to make them look pretty and professional looking?

What I would recommend is using a mixture of filler primer, sandpaper, and Bondo for the smoothest surface. The best technique I would recommend using these materials is to "layer" the filler primer and Bondo, sanding in-between layers until it is as smooth to your liking. Here is a couple of videos that I feel showcase the process in more detail:


Good luck!
