Pump Bottles

Bought some pump bottles from Aliexpress for div cleaning fluids.
Works really good.

Re: Pump Bottles

What is the advantage of these bottles over their original containers?

Flip the lid open, put a piece of paper on top and pump a couple of times.

Thanks, I've never used this kind of container. Now that I think of it when I was in Jr H and HS the sciense labs had them....

Re: Pump Bottles

Re: Pump Bottles

What are the different chemicals used for and when do you use them?

1. I know the Windex can be used instead of laying down glue to allow the first layer to adhere to the build plate. What else can be used? I remember glue sticks.

2. ACETON, is this only used for smoothing the surfaces of a print?

3. Used also for better adhesion for first layer. I read also it can be used for smoothing.

1. Yes, i use windex when printing PETg, Using this it is very much easier to get the PETg print off the bed.
2. Once in a while I clean the bed with acetone, especially when have printed ABS. It removes dirt very well from the bed. I use IPA to clean between every print. Aceton just once in a while.
3. You can smooth ABS with aceton also, never done it mysef though.

Re: Pump Bottles

I use acetone between every print, I don't have any issues with IPA, it's just that I'm too lazy to go all the way up to my room to get my bottle of IPA when I already have the Acetone in the basement
