Resin based prints are transparent right? I need to make a visor but transparent PLA looks white when printed and you cant really see through it lol

It’s also about the thickness and surface post processing of the transparent resin. https://www.instagram.com/p/BLUKi4NjFT1/

Just needs to be like 1/4" thick
