    The recycling part is probably the cause of your problems. I would expect that virgin PP to behave differently.

      Well unfortunately, since we live on a burning down planet, that’s not a factor that can be conscionably reconsidered…

      On the other hand, we also work with post-consumer recycled PLA, PA-CF, HIPS, and PETg, and none of them seem to behave appreciably worse than their virgin counterparts.
