PVB Prusament & Polysher

Hello everyone

I recently purchased the Polysher, to soften the Polysmooth filament with isopropyl alcohol. With the Polysmooth filament, it works fine.

Has anyone tested if it works with Prusa's Prusament PVB?

Regards

I'm using Prusament PVB but I don't have a Polysher.  How long did you leave it in, and then how long did it take to harden again?

Hello!

I leave the material 30-40 minutes, aprox. This time is variable depending on the surface of the model. This after the treatment remains soft, and depending on its geometry it may take from one to three days to harden. Some thin branch designs may appear to be a bit soft compared to normal PLA. I don't know if that is common or was it from too long exposure to isopropanol.
