Variable Layer Height gunchies

I'm trying clean up the stair step effect seen in the right most print. It is a .2mm print with a .4mm nozzle, input shaper, FW 5.1.2. That stair step isn't really erroneous, it just doesn't look that great. So I tried the variable layer feature. For the middle print, I slammed the layer height as fine as it would go once it got to the bowl shaped portion of the model. For the left-most model, I just reset everything and hit the adaptive layer height button. The slicer created a graph that varies all over the place. But the surface finish of both is just awful.

Any suggestions on how I might get a cleaner finish to the bowl portion?

You will need to post process.  a combination of filler or resin and abrasive paper will do it.

Cheerio,
