Posted (edited) · Surface layer section ugly - please help!

Hi there!

 

My prints are getting better over time, there is so much to learn. I have printed this mudflap for my bike. The infill is done in parts, there is this small section that is filled in after the larger parts. This is because the 2 curves at the sides, it skips this part at first and then fills it in later. Is there any way to make this section more equal (I'd like 100% ;-)) to the rest so it does not stand out from the rest op the surface? I have this on ever print where the surface is cut into parts and are filled in one after each other.

I have printed it with PETG at 240 C. in Cura 4.0 with 100% infill. It does not matter if I print in 80% infill, same result.

What can I change to get an even surface? Thanks in advance!
