MK3 z wobble- is this the issue?

I've printed a PSU cover and I printed the part with 75% print speed, the final result came out like this :geek: (check the attached image) is this cause by the z wobble? How do I eliminate the Z wobble? I also wonder what print setting/Printer josef use for MK3 printed part that you shipped? I seem like I cant get the same print quality from my MK3 😳 😡

I got a very similar result when printing a PSU cover from PETG, with the same sort of random diamond like shapes on the faces and a literal spiders nest of stringing. Took a long time to clean up and make usable. I was printing at 60% / .20, Slic3r PE, default PET temps. Something about large vertical flat faces the Mk3 does not like.

Change the infill pattern to grid, it is bleeding thru thr perimeters in this case 🙂

Josef, would increasing number of perimeters from 2 to 3 help? I usually print with 3 perimeters; i think that i have more rigid walls that way (don't really know if it's true, though...)

I always use three perimeters but still had the issue. I will try changing the infill pattern, thank you Josef.
