Defects when using blue and green transparent prusament PETG

Hello all,

My printer has a weird issue with both the transparent green and blue prusament. The prints have little, pin-sized holes or extrusions on them. As far as I can tell, they appear only on the surface of the prints, and they are aesthetic. The parts themselves are as strong and require quite some force to break. What's weird, this only happens with only these two filaments. I have a roll of red transparent prusament that prints excellently. Following are some pics I took ofthe fan mount for the filtration addon for the enclosure. The settings were 0,2mm quality(without input shaping), with the only changes being 15% cubic infill and 6 perimeters. The filament  settings were the default prusament PETG.

My question is, how would I go about troubleshooting this?

 

Thanks for taking the time to read this and for any and all suggestions.

Adding more info here, because I am a dum-dum and didn't manage to edit the OP in time:

This only happens with the green & blue transparent PETG. The red transparent PETG prints flawlessly. So do two rolls of Creality PETG, after fumbling with the temperature settings. So do a dozen or so cheap PLA rolls(again, after some fumbling).

Dry your filament.

Cheerio,
