Is it actually see through? The “transparent” filament I’ve used in the past is always pretty opaque.

    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.
