You should-
Drop the Retraction Distance to 1.5mm (or less)
And, Increase Retraction Speed to 60mm

That should get rid of All those fine hairs.


******

It's caused by the extruder Not being able to retract the molten filament quick enough to keep up with your Print Speed while it's moving to the next print location, that's what causing the stringing.

I think the retraction must work backwards on this printer, the video I watched said to make the number bigger to get rid of the spider webbing. Because at 1.5 it appears to be gone but I still have 20ish minutes left until it is done then I can check it better.
