Title sums it up, any other tips about PETG appreciated though.

Gotcha. I'm new to printing in general but the use-case here is a wearable helmet for a costume so seems like PETG is worth the hassle. Definitely getting a lot of stringyness at my current settings though so maybe some extra finegaling is in order.

I kinda live in a swamp tho so it's pretty humid at all times here, though the printer is in the same room as a dehumidifier lol.
