This material is PLA Polylactic Acid its a biodegradable plastic that if left in the sun (UV) will dissolve into the ground within 6 months. If painted or in some way protected it can last a lifetime. 3D printing lays it down in .2mm layers and thats what we have to sand down as the layers can be quite visible. Its not hard but takes an inordinate amount of time due to the life size prints we produce.
