FINISHING
6.1 Finishing Techniques
6.1.1 Useful Tools/Equipment
• Safety Goggles
• Mask
• Long-nose Pliers
• Wire cutters
• Sandpaper (100, 200, 300, 400, 500, 600 Grit)
• Medium, fine and extra fine sanding sponges
• Acrylic based primer spray paint
• Acrylic based spray paint (colour of your choice)
• Acrylic based varnish spray paint
NOTE:
Different paint types are also compatible with PLA. Consult your local paint supplier for the best
compatibility for your intended purpose.
6.1.2 Removing Support Material
Even after support material is removed by hand, residual material will
remain.
1.
Ensure that safety goggles and a mask are worn for protection
2.
Remove most of the support material by hand, taking care not to
damage the 3D object
3.
Using the long-nose pliers, carefully grasp some of the remaining
material, then twist to remove. Repeat until no more material can be
removed.
4. Using the wire cutters, cut away any excess filament.
6.1.3 Sanding
Though Fused Filament Fabrication (FFF) is capable of producing high quality objects straight out
of the machine, the layer lines will be visible. Sanding will reduce these ‘step’ marks in the model.
1.
Ensure that safety goggles and a mask are worn for protection
2.
Starting with 100 grit sandpaper, carefully sand your 3D object using small, circular motions
NOTE:
PLA is less resistant to high temperatures caused by sanding. Take your time sanding your 3D
object to avoid damage.
3.
Using the medium sanding sponge, sand difficult to reach areas of your 3D object
4.
Gradually increase the sandpaper grid until the 3D print is smooth
TIP: Spraying a primer filler will also help to reduce the layer lines on the 3D Object. This can then be
sanded away and repeated, until the desired smoothness is achieved
