Most custom prints come down to two materials. Here's how to choose between them without the jargon.
PLA — detail and colour
PLA prints crisply, comes in vivid colours and finishes, and is ideal for display pieces, keychains and collectibles that don't take heat or heavy stress.
PETG — strength and durability
PETG is tougher, more flexible and far more heat- and impact-resistant. It's the better pick for functional parts, anything left in a hot car, or pieces that get handled hard.
