Answer to Question 1

The 30 because the higher melt index indicates the material's ability to flow, this increase in flow will allow for better part definition. Processing time will also be shorter by using the 30 rather than the 2.

Answer to Question 2

Backdrilling is cutting a larger hole behind the portion of the vent hole that touches the plastic sheet. This larger hole gives greater air flow and allows faster application of the vacuum.
