    I’m not using anything specific for PETG clean up. IPA to get rid of oily residue and soapy water from time to time.

    Regarding other tips about PETG: make sure the filament is dry. Wet PETG will pull lots of strings, no matter how “good” you’re tuning your retractions.

        I don’t think it’s just the humidity, high temperatures/uncalibrated pressure advance (or firmware equivalent)/uncalibrated retractions can surely lead to excessive stringing as well. But in my experience with PETG, if you leave it exposed to humid air for a while, it will pull string no matter your calibration, and also leave tiny blobs on corners of your print. In general, I’m not a big fan of the material 🤷‍♂️
