Frequently Asked Questions

Which guide should I start with?

Use the ABS versus ASA guide when choosing a material. Use the combined drying guide when you already have a spool and need its preparation workflow.

Are the drying settings the same for every brand?

No. The guide keeps each manufacturer attached to its settings and identifies equipment and spool checks. Modified formulations need their own instructions.
