I'm wondering what others use as surface finish on their prints, do you leave it as-is, do you use smoothing sprays (haven't tried yet)?
I experimented a bit with sanding (here on the bottom part on the right one, but I find it too matte compared to the LC case), then hot air + pushing against sand paper (top part), but it's not very conclusive.

I found an interesting technique which gives good results for flat surfaces, and more work for the rest...
[Image: Mac_LCSD_DSCN2446.jpg] The small version here has a curve in the middle of the front face which doesn't help... These units received several tests though... [Image: Mac_LCSD_DSCN2441.jpg] Other options I haven't tried: painting, glossy or matte smoothing spray... Do you know other options? See the thread on Mastodon.
