I had similar messy results at one point -- it tuned out to be a bad zOffset. Having said that, my part also as a messy top layer -- not sure if yours has that or not with the little nub there.
No, that nub is not on the head, it's slightly beyond, this is due to the angle. The z offset works for PLA, I assume I don't have to change it for TPU?
Yeah. If you are good for pla, it's not likely the cause.
