Results of Bridge nylon dye test: 15 minutes in hot RIT solution. Beautiful. It feels good to have near full control of print colour.

The oozing varies with humidity. Towards the end of the print a slight popping sound was heard at every retract and was accompanied by ooze. My print lab is 80% humidity @11°C and I got 45 minutes of dry printing.

That’s a lot of humidity, make sure you store your filament properly. Popping is rather normal for nylon, especially when extruding too hot but it maybe moisture bubbles trapped in the material.

I have full humidity control in a purpose-built box near my printers. @Ben_Van_Den_Broeck
