I just purchased some sample PETG filament and done a few small print and works well.
It seems much stronger the ABS/PLA so I am wonder what are the pros/cons, from what I have seen

Con:
Need a Metal hot end.
No Solid Colors

Pros:
Strong and will bend before break
Bed at PLA temp so start up quicker

Unsure:
Warping
Delamination for large prints.

Anyone’s experience would be good before I buy a full roll(s) and not use ABS again.

Ok, I will need to do some testing on the heat.
I found with cooling the layers became cloudy, printing at 245c with 50mms

If I put PLA into boiled water it’s destroy completely it’s almost the same temp on hot sun in my region. So I use only ABS for outside parts and car parts.

Try to put a printed test part into boiled water - it’s a good temp test.
PS: Right now nylon and ABS is good : )
