Question regarding clear filament. I’m printing some buttons with LEDs behind them for a darth Vader belt box. I know it won’t turn out translucent, but I just need light to shine through. Any tips for silcer settings would be appreciated. I’ve read lowering infill to 5% or less helps?

Wall count is more impactful in what you’re printing than infill percentage. I printed the gauntlet insert at 3 wall and 8% infill and it’s plenty translucent enough and you can’t see infill lines when it’s lit. The lamp lenses are thin enough I don’t think there is any infill, but you get just enough diffusion for what I was looking for in the project.
