So, yes, I know that due to layer lines etc, FDM (PLA) printing isn't safe for food, however is there a way of making it safe? Essentially I want to create a draw insert for cutlery, so can I print it, the coat it in something to make it food safe?

Gotta find some food safe epoxy or something similar to wipe along the layer lines so it’s fully sealed.
