Todd,
If you sand the sla part to a good finish and then spray the part
with a clear laquer ie as supplied for painting cars, then the part
will take on a clear appearance. A bit polishing will improve this
more.
I was involved in the production of a bottle in sla in a previous job
and we used this method - with superb results !!
Regards,
Mark.
