Unlike the unmodified PC Blend, PCCF comes with great dimensional stability, good resistance to UV light and common chemicals, better tensile strength, but most importantly with high-temperature resistance and easier printing.\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003eIt is optimal for printing technical components requiring great strength and high-temperature tolerance.\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003eThe possibility of printing large models without using an enclosure is a great advantage when compared to pure PC Blend.

Clean it with IPA (available in drugstores, for example) which works great not only with PCCF but with other materials too.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003ePour a small amount of IPA on a paper towel and use it for cleaning the surface. To achieve the best results, clean the surface while it’s cold. Keep in mind that higher temperatures will evaporate the alcohol before cleaning the surface. Also, don’t forget that the heatbed preheated for printing with PCCF has a high temperature (110 °C) and may burn you if you touch it! Another possibility is cleaning the surface with warm water and a few drops of dish cleaner on a paper towel. You can also use denatured alcohol.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eWe don’t recommend printing with PCCF on a smooth PEI sheet. This material adheres greatly to the PEI surface and may cause damage to it. This type of damage is not covered by the warranty. If you need to print on a smooth surface, spread a thin layer of paper glue stick on it.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eAlso, if you often print with PCCF on the satin sheet, we recommend using a glue stick to prevent surface wear-out.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eYou can find more in-depth printing tips in our article at\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/blog.prusaprinters.org\/pccf_51028\/\" target=\"_blank\"\u003ePrusaPrinters.org\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003ch3 class=\"sc-2ebcaf2d-0 xcycI\"\u003ePrinting Setup\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003ctable style=\"width: 100.089%;

Clean it with IPA (available in drugstores, for example) which works great not only with PCCF but with other materials too.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003ePour a small amount of IPA on a paper towel and use it for cleaning the surface. To achieve the best results, clean the surface while it’s cold. Keep in mind that higher temperatures will evaporate the alcohol before cleaning the surface. Also, don’t forget that the heatbed preheated for printing with PCCF has a high temperature (110 °C) and may burn you if you touch it! Another possibility is cleaning the surface with warm water and a few drops of dish cleaner on a paper towel. You can also use denatured alcohol.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eWe don’t recommend printing with PCCF on a smooth PEI sheet. This material adheres greatly to the PEI surface and may cause damage to it. This type of damage is not covered by the warranty. If you need to print on a smooth surface, spread a thin layer of paper glue stick on it.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eAlso, if you often print with PCCF on the satin sheet, we recommend using a glue stick to prevent surface wear-out.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eYou can find more in-depth printing tips in our article at\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003ca href=\"https:\/\/blog.prusaprinters.org\/pccf_51028\/\" target=\"_blank\"\u003ePrusaPrinters.org\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003ch3 class=\"sc-2ebcaf2d-0 xcycI\"\u003ePrinting Setup\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003ctable style=\"width: 100.089%;
