Deviation Analysis

I am starting to do more surfacing in my models (medical design) and I was wondering what is an acceptable deviation between faces for injection molded plastic parts?

Thanks,

Adam

Deviation Analysis

Good question. There is no answer. Some may say .05° for a full-gloss part. If there is any texture, it is significantly less. How much less? Hard to say.

Hopefully someone has some experience they can partake, but my first-hand results have been rather ambiguous.

Edit: Finally found one of the threads I was looking for:
