Recently tried printing "glass" again. This is SBS transparent. I pushed the temperature from 220°C all the way to 250°C. The more milky one was at lower temps, tried the 250°C as has suggested for TPU and SBS for flow previously, as well as multiple guides for "printing glass". It worked for flow as well as better bonding layers and allowed them to flow into each other. It almost results in a polarization effect.
 
The temperature difference has made a difference. But I also increased the EM from 0.96 to 1.025, 1.10 was too high, and created other problems, such as a rough texture. An interesting thing here is that look at the layer allignment. I used 0° for one and 90° for the other. 
 
As with classic 3D printing, geometry and orientation make a difference.
 
The part is for a transparent drawer, of which the handle broke off. The drawer is transparent. Black, white, grey, etc, just didn't look attractive. So I tried printing "glass".
