Hi! I'm involved in a program called F1 in Schools and as part of it I have to write a 20-page design portfolio. We got the wheels for our model car here on Shapeways in Frosted detail, and our axles in Frosted Ultra Detail. I would like to feature the real names for these materials in our portfolio. Are they both the same material with FUD just having the machine set to a higher detail or what?

F1 for Schools is a great program, good luck with your project!
FD & FUD is printed on the Projet HD 3000. Most of the info you need is on the Material Safety Data Sheet linked to from the Frosted Detail material page
