Fixing Stringing with Tough Pro PLA+

Stringing between parts of a print usually means the temperature is too high or retraction isn't long enough.

1. Lower the nozzle temperature 5–10°C, staying within 230–250°C.
2. Increase retraction by 1 mm at a time.
3. Dry the filament. Wet filament strings more and gives a rougher surface. See Drying and storage.
4. Test with a retraction test model. Search online for "retraction test model" to dial it in quickly.
