1mm Nozzle Seam Issues
I decided to try a 1mm nozzle on my VC4 and I'm really happy with how I've been able to get it dialed in, except for the seams. On the outer walls, I'm getting scaring (under extrusion) and on the inner walls I'm getting blobs. This is with Sunlu's High Speed PETG, using OrcaSlicer.
I've played around with retraction settings a bunch, and I've been able to improve the issue by bringing retraction down to 0.05mm (tried a range from .8mm to .05mm) and keeping extra length on restart at 0mm (tried a range from .8mm to 0mm), but I can't seem to solve the outer wall holes without making the inner seams significantly worse.
I have calibrated my flow, temp, and max flow rate using OrcaSlicer's calibrations, and I've disabled pressure advance for the time being.
Anyone else who's running larger nozzles - any tips or suggestions?

Small update, as I was expecting, dropping to 0mm retraction from .05 made no difference
