Hi Karl,
I would like to 3D print the FMC buttons and because of the backlight they are printed in white PLA. Could you give some advice of the brand of white PLA that works for you? I have a matte white PLA but when I put a LED behind it, it seems to be not that transparent...
Kind regards,
Jack
Thanks Karl! I will try with the 5% infill. I was thinking of trying the following: print with transparent PLA and then spray paint, sand and then paint the letter with one layer of white acrylic pen. Would that work?
Hi Jack, whatever filament you use, you need to make sure the walls or top/bottom are printed thin and infill is set to around 5%. The power of the leds, do shine throiugh quite well and i used mazon basics white pla.
