Hello,
Wow! What a journey. I want to start off by saying, no, Silk PLA does not suck, It is just a pain in the butt to get working correctly. For anyone having issues with their Silk PLA’s infill shining through their walls. I have a solution (I hope).
Silk PLA puffs up when it is printed. No matter what I did, I still got the same results. I looked up why infill might have shown through walls, well, that didn’t do anything either. I printed the external perimeters first and then infill, nothing changed. It turned out that disabling the infill anchor completely for my Silk PLA settings did the trick! I have a picture down below. On the right is the new and improved setting, and on the left, the old setting. I believe that when the anchor hit the wall it pushed the wall out a little bit, or something happened with the head, anyway, My infill is still sticking to the walls, it just does not shine through.

Happy Printing,

Ps: Please excuse the ringing on the one in my left hand. I haven’t fully tuned resonance compensation yet.
Pps: Yes, I know that you can still see it (the infill) a little, no matter if I print with 2 or 3 walls you can see it. It is a major improvement though.
