Hi everyone,
Are the existing SLS 3d printed parts suitable for painting, whether by spray-painting, hand painting, or other methods? Which paint types are recommended? are there any to avoid due to compatibility issues?

Solved by Nikolaus Mroncz

Dear,

SLS parts are good for painting. 

You can also order spray painted parts directly at Xometry, what I also think, is the best option to achieve a constant result.
