I'm brand new to 3D Printing, I got a Bambu P1P & this video helped out tremendously

Very helpful. Thanks! Also dope Doom mask.. RIP king!

LOVE THE MF DOOM MASK. printed a death stranding die hard man mask, but have never done the sanding yet, this is the video ive been looking for. others dont do there videos detailed enough.

super cool, reminds me of when I was doing molds for this carbon fiber shop i worked at

I imagine Bambu has changed the game for you. I normally print at 0.12mm layer height, but it goes at least down to 0.08mm.

Saving this for my boba fett helmet ❤ thansk for the tips

This is great. time to grab some filler primer and glazing putty

Love your look and the darkwing dad thing. thanks for the vid

Excellent video, if you follow all these steps (yes all of them) then you will end up with a very smooth and nice looking 3d print. It was hell for me since I was doing a large prop with lots of small areas with tiny details which was hours of hand sanding those small details. But in the end it was worth it for how cleen the prop looked.

Beautiful finish

Well this answered all my questions and more. Thanks for the great video! Nice print too lol

Thanks for the info! Seems to be a fairly effective method for near perfect sand job without going crazy. 👍

Thanks for the video! This is going to be very helpful for some projects I have in mind!

Funny enough. I'm making my son's Halloween mask and I clicked on this video so that I could figure out how to clean it up and smooth out the edges for him. And it happened to be a video on how to do that and you're also using a mask lol so this is perfect. Thank you!.

I always look forward to your informative videos! Thanks again. Can’t wait for part 2 of the primer video!

Great video. Thanks.

These videos have been fantastic and I have learned so much, can’t thank you enough.

Thanks again my friend. Printing a Captain America helmet right now and I'm going to follow your instructions to the letter. My other attempts at helmets and masks haven't been to successful🤭 Here's to another year!! 🍾🥂 Cheers Bruh.

Great video as always! Happy new year Greetings from Chile

This was awesome!!!

Another great vid

primer sealer......thanks for that tip...just experienced what happens WITHOUT it using metallic paints today lol.

I made the the same MF DOOM print.. Printed with 0.6mm Nozzle, 0.32mm layerhight - for processing I used UV resin.. Two coats of resin, three step sanding and one coat of filler primer - ready for paint =)

How many aliases does this guy make media under? MF Doom, Viktor Vaughn, and now Darkwing Dad?

Hey, can I get in touch with you somehow? I just received a 3D-printed piece, but I'm not sure if I have to sand it or do something else with it. I've never dealt with 3D-printed props before, so I'm a bit lost on what I'm meant to do. Thanks for your time!

Great video!

Thank you! :D

Very cool

Are you painting, sanding, priming and sealing the inside of the mask/helmet as well or can that mostly be left alone?

Thank you so much for your effort put into these videos, I just got into 3d printing and found your channel incredibly helpful! Sanding has been a pain in the ass for me, I do also tend to have OCD lol. One quick question, I'm gonna print some nylon parts soon, does these sanding process works on nylon as well? Or are there any other things I should pay attention to? Appreciate your help!

Thanks, excellent clear video. You should link the follow-up; KZfaq will reward you, and it'll be easier for your followers to find.

i like the duck

Sadly, Bondo spot putty is hard to get hold of outside of the USA (unless you want to pay more in shipping than the value of the stuff itself). Anyone know of an exact equivalent in the UK/Europe?

Seriously amazing stuff!! Thank you so much for sharing your knowledge :) your helmets are crazy cool! I'm currently working on a Phase 1 Bomb Squad Clone Trooper but am having a little trouble getting into the really fine crevices and "vent" portions on the side - do you have any tips for that? Also, I'm looking to get a really nice glossy finish on the final paint job but I'm a bit worried as I only have up to 400 grit sandpaper. Should I consider getting something higher grit?

PLAF DOOM

Do you clean the print at all before putting the final sealer spray on? I feel like there's little filler particles stick in the tight spots from sanding that simply blowing on one get out. But I feel like cleaning with IPA might corrode the 2in1 spray filler?

Love the mf doom mask

What's the purpose of cleaning it with IPA vs water?

Thanks for the video! i had a question as I'm prepping some of my 3D prints: when im using rustoleum filler primer, it leaves behind some slight "dust" for lack of a better word. now obviously, i dont want to paint over this as it'll give unwanted texture. Other than a primer sealer, do I need to sand the excess off and then use regular primer? or would i just have to sand the rustoleumn "dust" away and then be ready for paint?

I havent finished the video yet so, apologies if you answered this in it. But i was wondering, will i be ok using PLA for masks/stuff i want smooth? I saw another video where someone said that sanding/processing PLA is alot worse than ABS

need a no filler method.

instead of a primer sealer could you use like xtc or an epoxy?

why not print at 0.1 or 0.15 and reduce the amount of sanding

coukd this potentially add thinkness to the item? as im printing a multi piece item and getting worried it wont fit all together

print in 0.15mm/layer .. use putty in spray is better

Your mask came out so smooth! How long did it take you to sand it down after you did the bondo putty? I attempted my first bondo, and it dried so quickly and went on so unevenly, even after sanding down with a dremel with the thick parts and 220, it's still bumpy.

How could you not spray some chrome on that mask!?!?!?!?!? Great info, but super let down at the end
