PVA water-soluble support filament
PVA is a water-soluble support material used alongside a main material on printers that can print two materials (through an AMS, CFS or dual nozzle). After printing, the part goes in water and the supports dissolve without marks.

What it is good for
Good for parts with internal cavities, complex overhangs and print-in-place mechanisms; it pairs best with PLA and PETG.
Which printer
Needs a printer that changes material mid-print, such as models with an AMS lite / AMS 2 Pro or the dual-nozzle Bambu Lab X2D and H2D.
Storage and care
PVA absorbs moisture faster than any other filament. Seal it with desiccant immediately after use or it will stop printing cleanly.
