      They normally require to be treated after the print to really get the transparent look

      Yeah, the transparent PLA I have is more crystal than transparent. It lets light shine through, so handy for encasing a status LED, but at any reasonable thickness it’s too cloudy / obscured to make out details through.

      But I have seen success printing truly transparent panels and things using PETG / PCTG.
