SteveM · Answer

I have not had any issues with mine outside in the Alabama heat. I am not sure about being in a hot vehicle but I have used it to print water hose hangers and a few other items which stay outside year round.

Not recommended for hi temp outdoor use. Use a PETG or an AMS for outdoor use.

It will warp under the sun, use PETG or ASA for outdoors!

JonnyG · Answer

The heat resistance of this specific filament is 61°C, which is just a little bit more than the average for PLA.

For anything pertaining to the outdoors, I would choose ASA.
