That looks like under extrusion.  Check your extrusion multiplier, infill speed, and possibly a clogged nozzle.

Could also be as said too fast, but temp is too low as well. That white stuff usually requires at least 225 to 235.

Printing since 2009 and still love it!

I'm printing at 230c so I'll screw with the temps. How would I go around removing the nozzle?

Thanks
Alex

You cant remove the nozzle. it is part of the entire heat block. You have to take the head apart then remove the electrical components and soak the metal in acetone.

How may I go about removing the electronics?

Disconnect the circuit board, remove the screws holding it, then remove it. Remove the fan and heater. The heater is held in by a set screw loosen it and the heater will slide out. The thermistor can stay in, acetone won't harm it.

Btw, does it Need to be pure acetone. It's hard to find 100% in Canada.

Re: Small holes in all prints

It would be better, it will just extend the soak time as the concentration drops. Go to a beauty supply store. It's cheap there and should be 100%. They use it in the custom nail industry.

It also 25 bucks. While a nail supply or beauty supply place sells it for 10 bucks because they buy in much higher volume.
