Just printed my new ABS that was declared as clear transparent. Quite a bummer. After print it was far from transparent. More like light whitish
So I guess I will have a go at PETG after all. Hope for better result on that.

Yes, that look about the same result I getQuote

I have both PETG and ABS in clear. Results are pretty similar. Far from clear- you wouldn't be able to see through them. But also not opaque, so light shines through and makes them glow, much more so that with white.
PETG is easier to print. You need to get your retraction just right, because it's stringy, but you can use a part cooling fan and thus it's much easier to do the more complex parts with tiny islands and bridges and overhangs etc.
Attached photo shows a print in "transparent" ABS. PETG looks virtually the same.
